HB1281 lowers the sales tax rate on food while raising sales and use tax rates on other goods and services, along with certain excise taxes. The bill also creates a new fund dedicated to helping school districts pay for capital outlay projects like building repairs and expansions. These tax changes are designed to shift the tax burden away from groceries and toward other purchases to fund school infrastructure improvements.
