Michigan biz plans lawsuit as tax hike looms

LANSING, Mich. — Prominent figures in Michigan cannabis say to expect a lawsuit if the state imposes a tax hike the struggling industry characterizes as an existential threat. The state senate is expected to vote this week on House Bill 4951, which would impose a 24% wholesale excise tax on REC. It’s the final legislative hurdle to vault the state’s effective pot tax to one of the highest in the nation.
