GOVERNOR CRIST REINSTATES BACK TO
SCHOOL SALES TAX HOLIDAY
~~ ~Signs legislation establishing a three day sales-
tax holiday, saving Florida families $26 million~ ~~
May 26, 2010
ORLANDO – Governor Charlie Crist today signed
House Bill 483, the Back to School Sales Tax
Holiday, at a Target store in the Waterford Lakes
Town Center in Orlando. This bill designates a three
day sales-tax holiday from August 13 through 15,
2010, on school supplies, books, clothing, and
footwear. The tax holiday is expected to save Florida
families $26 million.
“Our children deserve to have the resources and
materials they need to be successful and competitive
in the classroom. I am confident this tax break will
help students, families and businesses as they
prepare for a new school year,” said Governor Crist.
“It is important that we continue to alleviate the tax
burden on Floridians, as well as seek ways to
improve the economic future of out state.”
During the sales tax holiday, Floridians will not pay
sales tax on books, clothing and footwear that cost
$50 or less, as well as school supplies that cost $10
or less. In January 2010, the Governor presented
the Back to School Sales Tax Holiday to the
Legislature as part of his policy and budget
recommendations for the 2010-11 Fiscal Year.
“This tax break will enable Florida families to buy
school supplies and clothing for the school year
without the additional cost burden of state and local
taxes,” said Sally West, director of government
affairs for the Florida Retail Federation. “The tax
holiday will also provide a much needed boost to
Florida’s economy. We are thankful to Governor
Crist for his longtime, enthusiastic support of this tax
break.”
At the signing ceremony, Governor Crist was joined
by bill sponsor Senator Mike Fasano, Senate
Finance and Tax Chairman Thad Altman, and
leadership of the Florida Retail Federation.
