New York Pet Owners May Soon See Relief at the Checkout: Senator Hinchey's Pet Food Tax Exemption Bill. In a move that could save pet owners in New York state hundreds of dollars each year, Senator Michelle Hinchey has introduced a bill to exempt pet food from state sales tax. The legislation aims to make pet food more affordable for the estimated 2.5 million pets living in New York, many of whom rely on their owners for sustenance. If passed, the bill would bring New York in line with several other states that have already exempted pet food from sales tax, potentially alleviating a significant financial burden on pet owners.
