  1 32                           EXPLANATION
  1 33 The inclusion of this explanation does not constitute agreement with
  1 34 the explanation's substance by the members of the general assembly.
  1 35    Code section 423.2 imposes a state tax of 6 percent upon
  2  1 the sales price of all sales of tangible personal property,
  2  2 consisting of goods, wares, merchandise, and other items
  2  3 designated by statute, sold at retail in the state to
  2  4 consumers, except as otherwise provided by Code chapter 423.
  2  5 Generally, by operation of law, a sale subject to the sales
  2  6 tax is also subject to the use tax. Following the transfer
  2  7 of amounts required for the natural resources and outdoor
  2  8 recreation trust fund, one=sixth of the remaining state sales
  2  9 tax revenue from the 6 percent tax is transferred to the
  2 10 secure an advanced vision for education (SAVE) fund created in
  2 11 Code section 423F.2.  Moneys in the SAVE fund are allocated
  2 12 to school districts on a per pupil basis to be used for
  2 13 infrastructure and property tax reduction purposes specified
  2 14 in Code chapter 423F.  Under current law, the sales tax rate of
  2 15 6 percent is reduced to 5 percent on January 1, 2030, and Code
  2 16 chapter 423F, along with other corresponding provisions, is
  2 17 repealed December 31, 2029.
  2 18    This bill extends the 6 percent sales tax rate, the
  2 19 allocation to the SAVE fund, and the statutory repeal of Code
  2 20 chapter 423F until January 1, 2040.
