| This measure was not put on an election ballot |
The Michigan Tax Revenue Cut Sunset Provision Amendment was not on the November 4, 2014 ballot in Michigan as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. The measure would have required a four-year sunset provision for all new tax exemptions and credits that reduce tax revenue.[1]
A sunset provision provides for an automatic repeal once a specific date is reached.[2] Based to SJR M, an approved tax exemption or credit which cuts tax revenue would not have gone into effect until “sunset,” which would be four-years after approval.
