Bill > HB272

This bill proposes to amend Section 5739.02 of the Ohio Revised Code to exempt tampons, panty liners, menstrual cups, sanitary napkins, and other similar feminine hygiene products primarily used for menstruation from state sales and use tax. This change means that these essential items will no longer be subject to the state's excise tax on retail sales, making them more affordable for consumers. The amendment will take effect on the first day of the month that begins at least thirty days after the bill becomes law.
