Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy is reportedly preparing to introduce a sales tax as part of a long-term budget plan for the state.
Of Alaska’s 162 municipal governments, approximately 110 already levy some form of sales tax (including some seasonal ones) of 1% to 7%, according to numbers cited from the state Department of Commerce. As of last summer, 43 municipalities had joined the Commission, representing 85% of all Alaskans who live in a tax jurisdiction.
