Exempting certain hygiene products from sales tax
HB 2920 would exempt feminine hygiene products (such as tampons, sanitary pads, and menstrual cups) and diapers from West Virginia's state sales tax. The bill defines "feminine hygiene products" to include common menstrual items and "diapers" to cover both disposable and washable incontinence products for people of any age or sex. This change would remove sales tax from these specific items at the point of purchase, affecting consumers and retailers who sell them. The bill was introduced on February 24, 2025, and referred to the House Finance Committee for further consideration.
