A bill to amend 1967 PA 281, entitled “Income tax act of 1967,” by amending sections 623 and 695 (MCL 206.623 and 206.695), section 623 as amended by 2021 PA 135 and section 695 as amended by 2023 PA 4.
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.
