The Michigan Senate approved a five-bill package Tuesday establishing a regional transit authority for Metro Detroit and allowing public transportation projects to be funded with a voter-approved registration fee on car owners.
The bills, sought by Gov. Rick Snyder, are seen as crucial to funding a regional transit authority for Metro Detroit and empowering the authority to take over management of the region's major bus systems and create dedicated high-speed bus lanes on the area's busiest corridors.
....
Senate Bill 911 would allow the transit authority to seek voter approval in Macomb, Oakland, Washtenaw and Wayne counties for a special motor vehicle registration fee to fund the authority's transportation projects. Under the bill, voters could be asked to approve a registration fee not to exceed $1.20 for every $1,000 of a vehicle's listing price.

The recently approved DIA Tax had to be the lame-duck trial run for the convicted felon's SB 911 stink-bomb.

Thank your Lansing Nerdpublicans who have figured out another accountability loophole. To levy taxes on the people: let the moocher herd vote. To silence the people from their voice: limit access to constitutional amendments.
