Tennessee bill would create sales tax holiday for guns
NASHVILLE (AP) — A bill proposed in Tennessee's legislature would create a sales tax holiday for guns and ammunition.
The bill, filed Wednesday by Republican Rep. Dennis Powers, calls for a "Second Amendment sales tax holiday" on the first weekend of September each year.
Knoxville station WBIR reports that Tennessee already has a sales tax holiday at the end of the summer that's meant for back-to-school shopping. Last year, Louisiana and Mississippi each hosted sales tax holiday weekends on guns.
