Dear Inquirer,
Michigan families are feeling the pressure of higher prices, and it’s clear people need real solutions. That is why House Republicans passed meaningful tax relief into law that lets you keep more of what you earn.
We eliminated taxes on tips, overtime pay, and Social Security. These are not abstract numbers. They are real savings for real people.
Ending the state tax on tips will help up to 300,000 hardworking Michiganders, saving them an average of $400 every year. When combined with no federal tax on tips, that is about $1,500 back in workers’ pockets annually.
Ending the state tax on overtime will benefit up to 500,000 workers who put in extra hours to support their families. That means an average savings of $500 a year on state taxes, and about $2,000 a year when paired with no federal tax on overtime.
