Tampon Tax Back Coalition: Buyers Can Get Reimbursement of the Feminine Hygiene Products
According to SCRIPPS, manufacturers can now reimburse the “unjust” sales tax on feminine hygiene products, such as tampons, pads, and menstrual cups, in celebration of International Day of the Girl.
The companies argue that feminine hygiene products should be sold free of taxes as they are considered a medical necessity for women, yet shoppers still pay the sales tax on them in 21 states.
