Hawaii --Sales and Use Tax: SST Conformity Bill Vetoed

CCH (cch.taxgroup.com) reports:

  Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle has vetoed a bill that would have conformed Hawaii general excise tax laws with the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax (SST) Agreement. The Senate voted 23-2 to override the veto, but the House of Representatives declined to override the veto. Therefore, the veto stands.

  If enacted, the legislation would have moved the 0.5% tax on wholesale transactions to a new chapter; added a new chapter on the taxation of imports of property, services, and contracting; moved the 0.15% tax on insurance producers to a new chapter; and eliminated the tax on businesses owned by disabled persons. The legislation also would have provided for destination-based sourcing and amnesty.
