Encourage KY Legislators to End the Church Sales Tax

UPDATE: HB 37 has 42 cosponsors but has not received a hearing in the House Committee on Appropriations and Revenue. Rep. Jason Petrie chairs that committee.

MUST READ COMMENTARY: Churches Should Not Be Turned Into Tax Collectors (Kentucky Today)

Churches serve an essential role in their communities, providing significant benefit through their ministry focus. That's why they deserve tax-exempt status...

However, churches with sports outreach ministries are now being forced to register with the state and become tax collectors. Further, state law requires that churches must collect sales taxes on things like Wednesday night prayer dinners, Bible study books, and youth ministry trips. That's burdensome and hurts our Commonwealth.

House Bill 37, filed by Rep. James Tipton, seeks to remove this burden, and ensure that our churches and other nonprofits remain free to pursue their religious, charitable, and educational missions.

Please take action today to ensure Kentucky churches remain free to focus on their ministry, not government tax collection.

Urge the KY General Assembly to Support HB 37!
