2003 House Bill 4557 ↩

Senate Roll Call 173: Passed

To collect more income tax from non-residents, by expanding the types of income earned by non-residents which are considered "business income," and are therefore subject to Michigan's income tax. This bill is one of many authorizing “revenue enhancements” which Gov. Jennifer Granholm has proposed to close a gap between state spending and expected revenue in the Fiscal Year 2003-2004 budget. The Senate Fiscal Agency estimates the bill would increase income tax collected from taxpayers by some $6 million in FY 2003-04.
