8 Michigan Senators Plan To Repeal State’s 24% Cannabis Tax
The bipartisan coalition filed legislation to eliminate the newly implemented tax
Michigan Senate Democrats and Republicans are teaming up on legislation to halt the governor’s plan to fix the “damn roads” by making licensed cannabis businesses and consumers foot the bill.
The bipartisan coalition of eight senators filed legislation, Senate Bill 810, on Feb. 26 to repeal Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s Comprehensive Road Funding Tax Act. Included in the state’s $81 billion budget, the act implemented a 24% cannabis wholesale tax at the start of 2026 to raise revenue for roads, bridges and other infrastructure repairs throughout Michigan.
This new tax is in addition to the state’s 10% cannabis excise tax at retail and 6% sales tax.
