Gov Half-Whit Vetoes Gas Tax And Income Tax Relief

Reason:  Not enough opportunities for graft and government spending if you provide relief to all the people of Michigan rather than the Democrat's favored few and using the money to buy votes.

The Detroit Free Press: Whitmer vetoes GOP Legislature's plans to cut taxes on personal income, fuel

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Friday issued a double-barreled veto, nixing a massive tax cut passed by the Michigan Legislature and promising to reject a pause in the state gas tax.

Both moves were expected.

Whitmer is instead calling for more targeted tax relief, such as a repeal of the state pension tax and a tripling of the state Earned Income Tax Credit for low income earners. 

Michigan be sure to remember this come November.
