SCS/SB 823 - This act reduces the state sales tax rate to 1%
on food which is authorized to be purchased with food stamps
under the federal food stamp program. The 1% will be earmarked
for Proposition C funds. The two constitutional sales taxes
(1/10% Soils and Parks and 1/8% Conservation) will continue to be
collected on sales of such foods.
