Individual income tax: rate; rollback of rate to 3.9% and elimination of rollback trigger; provide for.
Key claim: HB6225 would roll the Michigan individual income tax rate back to 3.9% and eliminate the statutory trigger that currently governs automatic rate rollbacks.
Abstract
(HB6225 · 103rd Legislature) Individual income tax: rate; rollback of rate to 3.9% and elimination of rollback trigger; provide for. Sponsor: Rep. David Martin ® In committee: H Finance Latest action (2026-08-11): Bill Electronically Reproduced 07/29/2026
Why this matters
The individual income tax rate is the single largest lever affecting Michigan workers’ take-home pay and general fund revenue. Rolling the rate to 3.9% and removing the existing trigger mechanism would lock in a lower rate rather than tying future reductions to revenue conditions, changing both taxpayer liability and the state’s fiscal flexibility for programs funded by income tax collections.
