A bill for an act relating to the sales tax exemption for the purchase of central office equipment or transmission equipment used by certain entities primarily in the furnishing of telecommunications services on a commercial basis.

Summary

The bill removes the word “primarily” from the sales‑tax exemption language, so any central office or transmission equipment bought for furnishing telecom services is exempt from sales tax. It applies to local exchange carriers, cable operators, municipal utilities, cooperatives, long‑distance firms and other commercial telecom providers. The change also eliminates the related use‑tax on those purchases.
