In the near future, I will be introducing legislation to establish an annual back‑to‑school sales tax holiday. This proposal creates a three‑month tax‑free period—from July 1 through September 30—during which families can purchase a wide range of school supplies without paying sales tax.
Each year, parents face the rising costs of preparing their children for school, and those expenses add up quickly, especially for families with multiple students. By eliminating the sales tax on common back‑to‑school items, including supplies and computers, this initiative will provide meaningful savings for families across our state.
I invite you to join me in sponsoring this important legislation and helping ease the financial burden on parents as they prepare their children for a successful school year.
