Constitutional amendment campaigns race to collect signatures ahead of 2026 election

[RandySF]

Statewide campaigns to get various questions on the 2026 general election ballot in Michigan have already begun collecting signatures. That includes three proposed state constitutional amendments that say they’re using only volunteers to canvass at the moment.

One of those campaigns, Invest in MI Kids, would tax Michiganders more if they make at least $500 million a year as a single filer, or $1 million annually on jointly filed tax returns.

Extra revenue collected would go toward the state’s School Aid Fund.

Supporters say that money would have to go toward career training, shrinking class sizes, and teacher retention.

1. Numbers are not mathing

at least $500 million a year as a single filer, or $1 million annually on jointly filed tax returns

You mean (0.5 million a year as a single filer or $1 million if joint?)
