Arise legislative update: Week of May 12, 2025

Arise's Chris Sanders takes to the Alabama outdoors to celebrate two huge legislative wins for Alabama families last week. First is the enactment of HB 386, which will reduce the state sales tax on groceries from 3% to 2% starting Sept. 1. Untaxing groceries has been an Arise priority for decades, and we will continue to advocate to make the grocery tax a thing of the past. Chris also highlights the enactment of HB 152 last week. This new family-friendly law will end the state sales tax on essential items like baby formula, feminine hygiene products and maternity clothes. But we can't stop now. With just one day left in the regular session, we are still advocating for positive legislation on parole reform and increasing our state's income tax threshold.
