Feminine hygiene products are no longer a luxury purchase. Modern women are in schools and the workplace. Wearing a belt with a cloth clipped onto it is an unacceptable alternative, and a week out of every month cannot be taken to allow for the monthly menstruation.
A tax on feminine hygiene products is a tax unfairly applied to only half of the population, and effectively a tax on being a healthy, functioning woman post-puberty and pre-menopause.
Feminine hygiene products are a necessity for modern day-to-day life. These products are tax-free in states such as Minnesota, New Jersey, and California as well as in the UK. Let's make them tax-free throughout the United States. Help to stop the gender-biased and outdated tax of feminine hygiene products by signing this petition.
