(AP) — Gov. Rick Snyder is urging the Republican-led Michigan House to pass economic development tax incentives when it meets in July, saying there’s still time to lure a Taiwanese electronics giant to the state.

Snyder told The Associated Press Friday the job-creation program is “straightforward” and is about “more and better jobs.” House Speaker Tom Leonard canceled a vote on the bills Tuesday, citing concerns that Snyder had cut a deal with Democrats to “undermine” unspecified GOP priorities.

Snyder says “it shouldn’t be about partisanship.”
