Bill > HB935

This bill amends Missouri's sales tax law to add a new exemption for diapers and infant formula, providing tax-free status for these essential products. The bill specifically defines "diapers" as absorbent garments worn by infants, toddlers, or individuals who cannot control their bladder or bowel movements, and "infant formula" as defined under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. By removing sales tax from these items, the legislation aims to reduce the financial burden on families with young children or individuals with specific medical needs. The exemption is added to an existing list of sales tax exceptions in the state's tax code, which already includes numerous other categories of goods and services. This change will make these necessary products more affordable for Missouri residents, potentially providing economic relief to parents, caregivers, and individuals requiring these items.
