AI Summary

This bill proposes to create a sales and use tax exemption for several personal care and baby products in Kentucky from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2029. Specifically, the exemption will apply to baby bottles, baby wipes, breast pumps, breast pump collection and storage supplies, breast pump kits, diapers, menstrual discharge collection devices, and incontinence products. The bill requires the Department of Revenue to report annually to the Interim Joint Committee on Appropriations and Revenue the total exemptions claimed for the previous fiscal year.
