Centralization of state sales tax collection now goes to Louisiana voters
Friday, June 4, 2021
Louisiana lawmakers Thursday gave final passage to an effort pushed by Republican House Speaker Clay Schexnayder to begin the centralization of the state’s sales tax collections, a long-sought goal of business organizations.
The constitutional change, HB199, which won unanimous support from the House and Senate, still needs to win support from voters in the Oct. 9 election and it would only start the centralization process. Lawmakers would have to work out further details in a future session and pass them with a two-thirds vote.
The legislation was Schexnayder’s top priority for the session, and was backed with a major push from the powerful Louisiana Association of Business and Industry.
