Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt on Tuesday signed a bill to eliminate the state’s sales tax on groceries. With the 4.5% tax gone, that leaves 11 states that impose a grocery tax—a number that is swiftly shrinking.
Stitt called it the largest single-year tax cut in state history. Oklahoma will see more than $415 million less in revenue a year.
