Amendment offered by Rep. Yousef Rabhi D-Ann Arbor on September 15, 2020
To tie-bar the bill to House Bill 5254, meaning this bill cannot become law unless that one does also. HB 5254 would cap the amount of state tax dollars that can be given to a relative handful of large corporations including the Big Three automakers, which were authorized in deals approved in the late 2000s under a since-suspended Michigan Economic Growth Authority program. The bill would limit the hand-outs to $200 million in the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1, 2019, and $100 million in the following year.
