House Republicans introduce bill to eliminate sales tax on groceries

Tennessee Rep. Elaine Davis, R-Knoxville, has filed a bill that would remove the state's sale tax on groceries.

It's the second bill filed to end the tax. Democrats introduced a bill last month. The bills only remove the tax on food and food ingredients and not prepared foods, candy or alcohol.

Davis said her bill would not raise taxes or cause local governments to lose revenue. Local governments would have the option to impose a grocery tax.
