TO CREATE A SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION FOR SALES TO CERTAIN ORGANIZATIONS THAT SUPPORT VETERANS' FACILITIES.
House Bill 1485 proposed to create a new sales and use tax exemption in Arkansas. This exemption would apply to the gross receipts from sales of tangible personal property, digital products, or services. It would specifically benefit the Arkansas Veterans Cemetery Foundation and certain other 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. To qualify, these nonprofits must be registered with the state and established to support veterans' cemeteries, veterans' homes, or facilities administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs within Arkansas.
