Fry announces sales tax holiday weekend

Rep. Joel Fry, R-Osceola, released information regarding the annual Iowa sales tax holiday.  This year beginning at 12:01 a.m., Aug. 5, through midnight Aug. 6, no sales tax will be collected on select clothing or footwear having a selling price of less than $100 per item.

All businesses open on Aug. 5 and 6 are required to participate, though the holiday does not extend to Sunday.

“The yearly tax free weekend is a great way to relieve the tax burden on Iowa families as they gear up for back to school,” Fry said.
