TO CREATE A SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION FOR MENSTRUAL DISCHARGE COLLECTION DEVICES; TO CREATE A SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION FOR DIAPERS; AND TO CREATE A SALES AND USE TAX EXEMPTION FOR CERTAIN ITEMS RELATED TO BREASTFEEDING.

HB 1016 proposes to create sales and use tax exemptions for several categories of products. If enacted, it would remove the sales and use tax from menstrual discharge collection devices, diapers, and certain items related to breastfeeding. This bill directly affects consumers who purchase these goods, potentially lowering their cost by eliminating the added tax.
