LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan would keep an estimated $1.1 billion it is at risk of being forced to refund to out-of-state companies under a bill approved Tuesday by the House, which moved to insulate the state from a potentially budget-busting court decision.

On lawmakers’ first day of a four-week session before the November election, the House voted 100-10 to send the legislation to the Senate, whose Republican leader vowed final approval by the end of September.
