This bill contains no appropriations, but may be amended at a later date to include them. Note: The governor's proposed budget is contained in <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2007-SB-253">Senate Bills 253</a> (“non-research” universities) and <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2007-SB-254">Senate Bills 254</a> (UM, MSU, WSU), and is premised on the legislature adopting a 2 percent tax on services which along with other tax increases and a proposed reduction in business taxes represents a net tax hike of approximately $1 billion.
