What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, electricity and natural gas sold during the months of

November, December, January, February, March, and April for residential use is

exempt from the sales and use tax. Under this bill, electricity and natural gas sold

for residential use is exempt from the sales and use tax, regardless of when it is sold.

Because this bill relates to an exemption from state or local taxes, it may be

referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a report to be printed

as an appendix to the bill.
