2002 Senate Bill 1248

Senate Roll Call 466: Passed

To apply the same exemption from Use Tax to certain telecommunications machinery and equipment used for cell phone service located in Michigan that are currently exempt from sales tax. The bill is tie-barred to SB 824, which proposes to make cell phone service subject to the Use Tax rather than Sales Tax. This is in response to a federal order to the states to devise a coordinated sales and use tax regime for mobile phone charges. See also Senate Bill 477 and 824.
