To exempt daylight fluorescent outer garments from sales
HB 2140 exempts sales of daylight fluorescent orange or blaze orange outerwear (sold specifically for hunter safety) from West Virginia's sales tax during the first two weeks of November. The bill directly affects hunters purchasing safety gear during this period, removing a tax burden on these items. Key provisions define the exemption to apply only to garments marketed for hunting safety, not other clothing, and limit the tax-free period to November 1-14 annually. This policy change provides a temporary tax relief for a specific safety-related product during a designated hunting season window.
