What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates a sales and use tax exemption for services provided by an

electric cooperative to another electric cooperative, or by a telecommunications

utility to another telecommunications utility, for disaster relief work performed in

conjunction with a declared state of emergency.

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.
