Summary
The bill stops cities, counties and other local bodies in Michigan from imposing any tax, fee, charge or trading program that is based on greenhouse‑gas emissions, energy use, or vehicle miles. It also voids any existing local rules that do so and lets the attorney general or private citizens sue to enforce the ban. The goal is to keep climate‑related taxation at the state level only.
