Bill > HB1854

This bill amends Oklahoma's sales tax exemption statute to add two new categories of nonprofit organizations that will be exempt from sales tax. First, the bill provides a sales tax exemption for organizations that provide school supplies or clothing for underserved students attending pre-K through 12th grade at public schools in Oklahoma. The exemption includes not just sales of supplies and clothing, but also materials used in constructing or improving buildings owned by these organizations. Second, the bill creates a sales tax exemption for organizations that provide support to law enforcement officers in any municipality and have 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. The bill will become effective on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause, which means the legislation can take effect immediately upon passage. The bill is part of Oklahoma's ongoing efforts to provide tax relief and support for certain nonprofit organizations that serve specific community needs, in this case focusing on education and law enforcement support.
