A bill to amend 1933 PA 167, entitled “General sales tax act,” by amending sections 6a and 6c (MCL 205.56a and 205.56c), section 6a as amended by 2015 PA 264 and section 6c as added by 2015 PA 262, and by adding sections 4gg and 4hh.
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.
