Improving Diaper Affordability Act of 2025

HR 3128, the Improving Diaper Affordability Act of 2025, makes diapers eligible as qualified medical expenses under tax-advantaged health accounts (like HSAs and health flexible spending arrangements) and prohibits states or localities from imposing sales taxes on diaper purchases. This directly affects families with young children - particularly low-income households, where 46% report struggling to afford diapers - who currently spend hundreds annually on diapers. The bill changes existing tax rules so families can use pre-tax dollars from health savings accounts to cover diaper costs, and bans sales taxes on diaper purchases starting in 2025. It does not create new government assistance programs but adjusts tax treatment to reduce out-of-pocket costs for diapers.
