SB 39 Ohio Senate · 135th Legislature (2023-2024)

Exempt certain baby products from sales and use tax

SB 39 proposes to exempt specific baby products from state sales and use taxes, directly affecting parents and retailers who sell these items. The bill achieves this by amending the Revised Code to remove certain infant goods from the list of taxable tangible personal property. This change would lower the cost for families purchasing these essential items and reduce the tax burden for businesses selling them.
