Assembly Bill 69 proposes an amendment to the sales and use tax exemption for electricity and natural gas sold for residential use in Wisconsin. Currently, this exemption applies only to sales made during the months of November through April. The bill seeks to expand this exemption to include electricity and natural gas sold for residential use at any time of the year, effectively removing the seasonal limitation.

The specific legal language being amended is found in section 77.54 (30) (a) 2. of the statutes, where the phrase "during the months of November, December, January, February, March, and April" is deleted. This change aims to provide year-round tax relief for residents utilizing these essential utilities. The bill is currently under consideration by the Committee on Ways and Means and may be subject to review by the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions due to its implications on state and local tax policies.
