Eliminate the sales tax of 9% on groceries.
Why is this important?
It is outrageous that in Alabama, where minimum wage jobs employ most people, that when you go to buy groceries to feed your family, you are paying 9% sales tax. How can food, which you need to exist, be taxed? The average person in Alabama, which is a poor state, is struggling to survive, does not MAKE THE SALERIES OF OUR LEGISLATORS nor have their health benefits, which our tax dollars pay for; just once can they vote on something that would help the average struggling family who is trying to feed their family, then gets slapped in the face buying groceries to feed their famiies! Outrageous!
