Bill > SB00903

This bill proposes to modify the existing sales and use tax laws in Connecticut by creating a tax exemption for clothing items that cost less than $100. Currently, sales and use taxes are applied to most clothing purchases, but under this proposed legislation, any article of clothing priced under $100 would be exempt from these taxes. This means consumers would pay the base price for lower-cost clothing items without additional sales tax, potentially providing some financial relief for individuals and families when purchasing more affordable clothing. The bill would amend chapter 219 of the general statutes to implement this tax exemption, which could help make clothing more accessible and slightly reduce the overall cost of purchasing everyday apparel for Connecticut residents.
