House approves changes to General Sales Tax Act after floor amendments rejected
The Michigan House approved House Bill 4376 on a 71-33 roll call vote after floor consideration of multiple amendments and ordered immediate effect.

Representative Snyder, the sponsor, offered an amendment identified as Amendment 1 which was adopted. Representative Weiss offered Amendment 2 and spoke in favor of language intended to protect the School Aid Fund, arguing tax changes should not reduce school funding. Weiss said the amendment would "ensure that the school aid fund is left unharmed under the tax changes" and described repeated small reductions in school revenue as "death by a thousand cuts." The clerk recorded that Weiss's amendment was not adopted.

Representative Bridal offered Amendment 3; the clerk recorded that the amendment was not adopted. The clerk later announced the final tally as 71 aye votes and 33 nay votes; the majority present voted in favor and the bill passed. The majority floor leader moved for immediate effect and the House ordered immediate effect.

Action and next steps: The bill passed the House with immediate effect ordered. The transcript records floor debate focused on protecting the School Aid Fund but does not include a fiscal note or next legislative steps in the Senate.
