Conservatives Oppose

Description

Imposes a long list of new taxes and fees on residents in the state in order to balance the state budget. Some of the new taxes include a new tax bracket with a higher tax rate for people who make over $600,000, a new 6% tax on vending machine products and a new 3% sales tax on all data and IT services. Some new fees include an increased vehicle emissions inspection fee, a tire fee and doubling of the certificate of title fee. CPAC opposes tax increases which hurt jobs and fees which harm middle-class Americans and opposes this legislation. The House passed this bill on 2025-04-07 by a vote of 94-46. The Senate passed this bill on 2025-04-07 by a vote of 29-18. The bill later became law.
