Proposes a constitutional amendment providing for the reauthorization or expiration of the conservation sales and use tax
HJR 94 proposes a constitutional amendment to establish a permanent conservation sales and use tax in Missouri, requiring voter approval every six years. It would add a 1/16th of one percent tax on most retail sales and use of goods (e.g., groceries, clothing, services) to fund wildlife, forestry, and habitat conservation programs managed by the Department of Conservation. If voters reject renewal, the tax would end after the second fiscal year following the rejection, with no future re-submission. This tax affects all Missouri consumers purchasing taxable goods or services, as the revenue directly supports conservation efforts statewide.
