Some US Consumers to Be Reimbursed for ‘Tampon Tax’

Some American consumers paying sales tax on menstrual products, including tampons, pads, and menstrual cups, across 21 states will be able to get that tax reimbursed starting from Oct. 11.

The move comes after multiple producers of feminine hygiene products came together to form a joint partnership known as the "Tampon Tax Back Coalition" aimed at preventing women from having to fork out extra in-state sales tax when buying the essential items.
The eight brands in the partnership include August, Cora, Lola, The Honey Pot, Rael, Here We Flo, Saalt, and DIVA.
