Michigan Senate Candidate Elissa Slotkin Faces Scrutiny Over Farm Tax Exemption

Slotkin benefits from an agricultural tax break on property with no active farming or licenses, saving $2,700 annually.

  • Slotkin's property in Holly, Michigan, is classified as 'agricultural-improved' despite no farming activity.
  • The tax exemption has been in place since Slotkin's grandfather used the land for cattle farming in the 1950s.
  • Aerial images show no evidence of current agricultural use on the property.
  • Slotkin's campaign asserts the property has qualified for the exemption for generations.
  • Critics accuse Slotkin of misleading voters about her farming credentials.
