As your constituent and as a member of the Michigan Association of Retired School Personnel, I urge you to provide relief to the seniors and retirees who have been unfairly taxed for over a decade. When the state government was facing a budget deficit in 2011, Public Act 38 reduced a promised, long-standing income tax exemption for pension income based on pensioners’ birthdates. State officials estimated that taxing senior and retiree pensions would bring in hundreds of millions of dollars. This proved accurate. Now, with state coffers full, it's time to finally restore the tax exemption on which retirees planned their futures. Vote YES on HB 4001 and SB 0001.
