Calley: SBAM will continue to vigorously oppose prejudicial language of ballot proposal

“This ballot proposal is an attempt to open up Michigan’s Constitution and more than double taxes on thousands of small businesses. These hardworking people are Michigan’s most prolific job creators and spur innovation in communities throughout our great state. If this proposal is eventually approved, it will most hurt those with the greatest positive impact on the foundation of Michigan’s economy and future prosperity.

“Today is a victory for small business owners and their employees, but it is only temporary. The Board of Canvassers recognized that the process for receiving public comments did not follow proper procedures under the law. SBAM will continue to vigorously oppose the prejudicial language of this proposal because voters deserve an honest and transparent description of just how damaging it would be to small businesses across the state who are just trying to survive and create a better future for their families, their employees, and all of Michigan.”
