HB 1474 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Reduces the tax on diapers and feminine hygiene products

This bill proposes to lower the sales tax on diapers and feminine hygiene products to match the rate charged on food. It directly affects parents purchasing baby supplies and individuals buying personal care items like tampons and pads. The legislation defines "diapers" as absorbent garments for infants, toddlers, or those with bladder or bowel control issues, and "feminine hygiene products" as tampons, pads, liners, and cups. By aligning the tax rate with that of food, the bill aims to reduce the cost of these essential items for consumers.
