Tennessee SB1837 proposes to exempt from the state sales and use tax the retail sale of food and food ingredients that are eligible for vouchers under the Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). This bill primarily affects retailers and consumers participating in the WIC program by reducing the tax burden on eligible food items. The key provision is the specific exemption for WIC-eligible food items, which aims to support low-income families in accessing nutritious food.
