Introduced
by
To require the Department of Treasury to increase enforcement of the sale of untaxed cigarettes by Indian tribes to non-tribal members. The department would be authorized to search for untaxed cigarettes being transported from tobacco wholesalers to tribal lands. Federally recognized Indian tribes are exempt from Michigan's tax laws, but most tribes voluntarily collect and remit the state cigarette tax. Several do not, however.
