Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, who has boasted of makingthe state more hospitable for entrepreneurs, has until Tuesday to sign or veto a bill that would prevent upstart electric vehicle maker Tesla Motors from selling cars in the state through its own stores and not through a traditional dealership network.
Michigan law requires automakers to sell through franchised dealers. That law didn't specifically mention Tesla, which started in 2003 and operates from a headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif., and from a former General Motors-Toyota plant in nearby Fremont.
