SD Gov. Noem's grocery tax cut hits obstacle in GOP-dominated legislature
Fox News
A repeal of South Dakota's grocery tax proposed by Republican Gov. Kristi Noem is being debated by lawmakers unsure of whether the move would prompt an untenable decline in state revenue.
Although Democrats have proposed grocery tax cuts for years, they gained a powerful bipartisan ally when Noem made it a key part of her reelection campaign. Noem, who is considering a 2024 White House bid, has trumpeted the proposal as the largest tax cut in South Dakota history.
Noem says cutting the tax, which brings in more than $100 million annually, would help household budgets squeezed by inflation.
