Michigan lawmakers ended a budget stalemate early Friday, approving an $81 billion spending plan that increases funding for roads and schools while cutting vacant jobs and reducing money for a major business incentive program.

The agreement came two days after the Legislature missed the constitutional deadline to pass a new budget. Lawmakers avoided a shutdown with a temporary measure earlier this week. Final votes stretched into the early morning hours, with the Senate approving a 25% wholesale marijuana tax around 3:15 a.m.

The new budget is slightly smaller than the $82.5 billion plan signed last year by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, but larger than the $78.5 billion version pushed by House Republicans.

Senate Republican Leader Aric Nesbitt of Porter Township, who opposed the omnibus plan, criticized the final deal.

“At the end of the day, this budget doesn’t do enough to help ease the burdens on families, farmers, small businesses and our kids so they can make it in Michigan,” Nesbitt said in a statement.

Nesbitt did support shifting all state gasoline tax proceeds to roads, which he said would provide an additional $2 billion in road repairs without raising costs for families.

“One hundred percent of the tax money Michigan drivers pay at the pump should go to fixing the roads — period,” he said.

The budget now heads to Governor Whitmer for her signature.
