We need your help to urge Virginia legislators to extend this exemption and support the printing businesses that serve our communities. Without this extension, Virginia printing companies will face increased costs, potentially jeopardizing jobs and driving business out of the state.
Please urge your legislators to support SB 871 (VanValkenberg) and HB 2675 (Simons). These bills will simply extend an effective sales tax exemption that for 30 years has helped Virginia printers grow their businesses. Virginia’s long-standing sales tax exemption on products for out-of-state customers helps printers compete and grow, and has been a difference maker in landing new customers and projects.
Here’s how you can help:

This exemption is not just about business; it’s about protecting jobs, fostering innovation, and ensuring the vitality of our industry in Virginia. Please take a moment to act today. Together, we can ensure our legislators understand the importance of extending this critical exemption.
Thank you for your time and support. If you have any questions or need assistance with contacting your legislators, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at tim@printcommunications.org or the PGCA office at 800-777-4742.
