Local Sales Tax Rate Change Watch

Track sales tax rate changes in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: city, county, transit and special district rate changes taking effect in the next 90 days with the old and new combined rate for jurisdictions over 50,000 people; ballot measures passed or failed on sales tax; grocery, clothing, diaper, feminine product, medical and essential item exemption changes by state; marketplace facilitator and delivery fee tax changes; vehicle, restaurant, lodging and rental tax changes in the 100 largest cities; state rate changes and cuts; retailer overcharge and refund rule changes; and state rate lookup tool launches. Prefer state revenue departments, city and county finance offices, secretaries of state for ballot results and established tax and local reporting; ignore unverified posts. Put the jurisdiction first in the title with the old and new rate and the effective date. Use high severity for a change of 0.5 points or more in a jurisdiction over 250,000 people, a new essential item exemption, or a state rate change. Return no more than 8 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, the rates, who it affects, what to do before the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
