Abstract

The State of Michigan tax amnesty program, proposed and enacted into law by Governor Blanchard in April, 1985, was designed to allow taxpayers to pay back taxes and accrued interest due without penalty. A public information campaign was launched to inform taxpayers about the availability and advantages of amnesty. Results of the program are analyzed statistically.
