A SALES TAX ON DOCTOR VISITS AND MEDICINE? IN MISSOURI, SOME WORRY

AT A GLANCE

A ballot measure to eliminate Missouri’s income tax would give the state legislature broad authority to levy new sales taxes to replace the lost revenue. Critics say that could mean adding a sales tax on medical services or prescription medicines.

Those types of taxes are unusual, but not unheard of, in the U.S.
