An act to amend 1933 PA 167, entitled “An act to provide for the raising of additional public revenue by prescribing certain specific taxes, fees, and charges to be paid to the state for the privilege of engaging in certain business activities; to provide, incident to the enforcement thereof, for the issuance of licenses to engage in such occupations; to provide for the ascertainment, assessment and collection thereof; to appropriate the proceeds thereof; and to prescribe penalties for violations of the provisions of this act,” by amending sections 6a and 25 (MCL 205.56a and 205.75), section 6a as amended by 2015 PA 264 and section 25 as amended by 2023 PA 20, and by adding section 4gg.
House Bills 4180-87 and House Bill 4230 replace the sales tax levied on fuel purchase with a 20 cent per-gallon tax on fuel. The bills eliminate the earmark from corporate income taxes to selective business subsidy programs and allocates the revenue from the tax to transportation funding. Overall, the package is a 73% increase in state spending on roads, allocating $3.2 billion more to this effort.
