Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has signed a new budget bill into law that removes state taxes on tips, overtime pay, and Social Security benefits, mirroring recent federal tax changes under President Donald Trump’s signature One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which provided similar relief.
The measure, approved by lawmakers last week and signed on Oct. 7, is part of Michigan’s $81 billion fiscal 2026 budget, a bipartisan plan that funds state operations through September 2026.
