What’s in it

This bill modifies the sales tax holiday. The bill adds the purchase of emergency preparedness supplies to the existing sales tax holiday for clothing during the period beginning at 12:01 a.m. on the first Friday of August and ending at midnight the following Saturday. As with an article of clothing, an emergency preparedness supply item must be under $100 to qualify for the sales tax holiday, except for generators and other specified items which qualify if the sales price does not exceed $5,000. The bill limits the purchase of a portable or permanent generator to one such item per household per sales tax holiday period. The bill defines “emergency preparedness supplies” to mean a collection of basic household items needed in the event of an emergency and includes a list of the items.
