Why Utah should get rid of the 'Tampon Tax'

from The Mom Show

There's a push on Utah's capitol hill to get rid of the so-called "Tampon Tax." This is a sales tax on feminine hygiene products, like pads and tampons, used by 50 percent of the population. Host Lindsay Aerts is joined by Emily Bell McCormick of The Policy Project who has been largely behind the push. They layout the reasons for, and against doing away with this tax. They discuss what's being done at a federal level. They discuss what other items are tax-exempt in Utah while pads and tampons are not. They discuss what role a male-dominated state legislature plays in addressing this issue.  See our website for privacy information.
