Exempt all taxes on feminine hygiene products that are needed for a woman's cycle.

Created by P.G. on February 21, 2016

This petition is for the removal of taxes on all feminine hygiene products that are used to aid in a woman's cycle. These items should not be deemed as luxury, simply because we don't have the luxury to choose to have a cycle. Not only is it inevitably, but only women can get them, and paying for a product that we absolutely need to aid in something that a woman can have basically means we are paying to be a woman and is simply unconstitutional. Not everyone can afford to even but these items in the first place, and to tact on taxes seems cruel, especially thinking of the different changes we have to through during that time as well. Please look into the matter and see for yourselves that it isn't right at all. Thank you so much for your time.
