Bill Summary

Relative to the imposition of the sales tax for the keeping of horses as a commercial enterprise. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to exempt the keeping of horses as a commercial enterprise from the state sales tax. Specifically, it inserts the phrase "the keeping of horses as a commercial enterprise" after the word "production" in two sections of Chapter 64H, which deals with the state sales tax. This change means that the sale of goods and services related to the commercial keeping of horses will not be subject to the state sales tax.
