For the next 2 years - people in California will not have to pay taxes on diapers or or menstrual products according to a new law that went into effect on New Years Day
From KTLA:
Senate Bill 92 temporarily eliminates sales and use taxes on diapers for infants, toddlers and children, and on menstrual hygiene products including tampons, sanitary napkins, and menstrual cups and sponges. The exemption expires on Jan. 1, 2022, according to the legislation.
The law was approved last June by Gov. Gavin Newsom, who included the tax repeal in his state budget.
“This year, thanks to the support of our governor, we were able to finally repeal the sales tax on children’s diapers — saving the average family $100 a year per child in diaper taxes,” Gonzalez told KTLA sister station KSWBin San Diego last week. “Now we work toward making this tax repeal permanent.”
Love this....When is there ever a story about tax cuts in California?
