Combined tax revenues in Louisiana decreased 7.9% in the first quarter of 2023 in comparison to the previous quarter, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s Quarterly Summary of State and Local Taxes.

Overall, Louisiana collected $3.5 billion in taxes during the first quarter of 2023, compared to $3.8 billion in the previous quarter.

The majority of the state’s tax revenue was collected through general sales and gross receipts taxes ($2.2 billion) and income taxes ($1.1 billion).

In addition to detailed tax revenue data from each state, the Quarterly Summary of State and Local Government Tax Revenue includes an estimate of state and local government tax revenue at a national level.

The Census Bureau cautions that it sets the tax classifications among the survey categories, and they may differ from the classifications set by the state governments.
