South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has proposed cutting the sales tax on groceries. It would amount to just over one hundred million dollars in tax reductions.
Senator Jean Hunhoff of Yankton, Co-chair of the Joint Committee on Appropriations, says sales tax revenues have been above their projections…..
Hunhoff says a lot will depend on sales tax trends into early next year….
Hunhoff says sales tax on food is a big part of ongoing state revenue…..
Similar bills to cut the tax have been introduced in past sessions of the legislature and have been defeated.
