Inflation Relief Checks and Other Measures
In this time of the increasing inflation rate that affects the prices of basic commodities, federal and state officials are finding ways to help the citizens in the country combat the financial crisis. Different programs and legislations were created to ensure that American families can meet their daily needs.
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and state lawmakers said that they plan to give the biggest inflation relief checks and other measures to all taxpayers in the state, according to a published article in the Detroit Free Press. She also mentioned that they have agreed to include this in the state’s tax plan.
Moreover, Gov. Whitmer made the announcement as the bills to cut taxes on Michigan retirees and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit are about to be deliberated and discussed in the conference committee early this week. They are also hopeful that the differences between the House and Senate will be resolved.
