Madison, WI – Today, Senator Brad Pfaff (D – Onalaska) and Representative Jenna Jacobson (D – Oregon) introduced legislation to create a back-to-school sales tax holiday, aiming to ease some of the cost burden facing families as they purchase clothing and school supplies for the school year. Senator Brad Pfaff released the following statement:

“I have two grown children. I know just how expensive it can be to get the family ready to return to the school year. A back-to-school tax-free holiday is just one way that we can help parents keep more of their hard-earned cash in their own pockets.”

Copies of the proposed legislation and co-sponsorship memo are included in the original email.
