The Alabama House of Representatives today passed a $192 million tax cut package. The package includes legislation aimed at reducing the cost of groceries, supporting senior citizens on fixed incomes, and cutting taxes on earned income.
“With the passage of this tax cut package, the Alabama House of Representatives has now passed 15 tax cuts since the current quadrennium began in 2022,” said House Speaker Nathaniel Ledbetter. “As shopping carts get lighter and grocery bills continue to rise, I am particularly proud that we were able to double down on the grocery tax cut, which is the largest cut in state history and will save Alabama families a minimum of $236 per year.”
