Exempts sales and use tax for motor vehicles sold to tribes or tribal members in Washington.

This bill amends Washington state tax law to exempt sales and use tax for motor vehicles sold to federally recognized tribes or their enrolled members. The exemption applies if the vehicle is delivered to the tribe or tribal member in their Indian country. To substantiate the tax-exempt status, the seller must require proof of tribal membership or citizenship. The bill also mandates a review to assess the impact of the tax preference, with potential extension if vehicle sales to tribal members increase by at least 20% by 2034. The tax exemption expires on January 1, 2037.
