Sales tax revisions.

HB 67 (2019) would have imposed Wyoming’s sales tax on specific services previously exempt, including beauty shops, gym memberships, landscaping, and professional services like accounting. It repealed the sales tax exemption for food purchased for home use and adjusted tax rates to increase the total sales tax from 3% to 3.5% (effective July 1, 2019), with revenue distributed as existing sales tax. The bill directly affected businesses providing these services and consumers purchasing them, while removing prior exemptions. Although introduced in January 2019, it died in committee in February 2019 and did not become law.
