Home Hardening Products
Good for everyday people ·
This bill would let people save money on sales tax when buying things to make their homes safer from storms.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill would help people make their homes stronger against storms like hurricanes by making it cheaper to buy special products. It would save families money and protect their homes. If it doesn't pass, people will keep paying full sales tax on these items.
