2014 Bill(s)

* SS HB 1865
Sponsor: Redmon, Craig
Status: GOVERNOR VETOED
Description: Exempt from the sales tax utility expenses used for the preparation of food that will be sold. The final version adds other business tax breaks. Legislative staff estimate the annual revenue lost at up $25 million per year. The governor's office estimates a much higher loss.

MDN's database may not include committee assignments of bills made on the last day of the session since it is too late for the committee to act on the bill and, thus, the delayed assignment has no practical effect.
