Senate Bill 90 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 on their utility bills. The bill has been introduced and referred to the Committee on Agriculture and Revenue for further consideration.
