This bill amends the Management and Budget Act of 1984 by adding a new section, Sec. 427, which mandates that state agencies in Michigan must accept cash payments alongside other forms of payment. The legislation specifies that state agencies cannot impose any additional fees for transactions made in cash.
The intent of this bill is to ensure that all individuals have the option to pay in cash without facing extra charges, thereby promoting accessibility and convenience for those who may not have access to electronic payment methods.
