AI Summary
This bill exempts the sale of laundry soap or detergent from sales tax in the state of Iowa. Specifically, the bill modifies Section 423.3 of the Iowa Code by adding a new subsection that removes sales tax from these cleaning products. By doing so, consumers will no longer have to pay sales tax when purchasing laundry soap or detergent. Additionally, because of the existing Iowa tax code (specifically section 423.6), this sales tax exemption will also apply to use tax, meaning the products will be tax-free both at the point of sale and if brought into the state from elsewhere. This change would take effect in the 2025 Code of Iowa, providing a small but potentially meaningful reduction in the cost of household cleaning supplies for Iowa residents.
