Texas Tax-Free School Supply Weekend | Houston News
Description
Texas families can save big this weekend—Friday through Sunday—with a sales tax holiday on school supplies, including clothing and backpacks under $100, whether shopping in-store, online, or via mail. This long-running program, first introduced in 1999 by Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis, has saved families over $2 billion. It’s especially vital now for working households and teachers who often pay out of pocket to outfit students. Lawmakers are even eyeing expansion, possibly to the entire month of August, to offer even more relief.
