FROM THE DESK OF GLENN HEGAR
Texas' Oldest Sales Tax Holiday Marks 25 Years
Texans have saved an estimated $1.8 billion in combined state and local sales tax since the state’s oldest sales tax holiday started in 1999. Though unofficially known as the back-to-school tax holiday, these savings aren’t just for school-age children. Most clothing, footwear and school-related supplies priced under $100 are exempt from sales tax Aug. 9-11.
Comptroller Glenn Hegar details the economic impact on Texans’ wallets and how it has helped his children better understand family finances.
