Michigan Chamber of Commerce recently is.sued the following announcement
Governor Whitmer last week signed into law legislation that provides guidance on internet sales tax collections. This action coincides with the National Conference of State Legislators who put the finishing touches on model legislation designed to bring more uniformity to the taxability of internet purchases. In 2020, the Michigan Chamber will review the model legislation and seek any necessary modification to Michigan’s Sales/Use Tax laws deemed necessary.
Michigan's new internet sales tax law - now Public Act 143 of 2019 - is a result of the South Dakota V. Wayfair decision handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court last year. PA 143 goes into effect January 1, 2020.
While the Governor signed this legislation, she did so with hesitation. In her signing letter, she expressed her disappointment in a provision that bans class action lawsuits. Governor Whitmer made it clear that she will never sign legislation with this type of provision again.
