Sales tax; exempt certain retail sales of electronic devices/educational software and sales of feminine hygiene products.

HB 304 exempts the retail sales of certain electronic devices and educational software from Mississippi's sales tax during the last weekend in July, and permanently exempts the retail sales of feminine hygiene products from sales tax. This means consumers will not pay sales tax on these specific items during the designated weekend for electronics and educational software, while feminine hygiene products become tax-free year-round. The bill amends Mississippi Code Section 27-65-111 to add these exemptions to the existing list of tax-exempt items. The policy directly affects retailers selling these products and consumers purchasing them by removing sales tax from these categories.
