This is pure sexist discrimination. More special treatment for the weaker sex.

aug 9 2022 DENVER, Colo. (KRDO) -- Earlier this year, Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed a law to end the state sales and use tax on feminine hygiene products and diapers.

The bipartisan law now goes into effect Wednesday, August 10.

The bill received substantial bipartisan support in the legislature. It passed the Senate in a 26 to 9 vote and the house in a 50 to 13 vote.

Representative Susan Lontine says removing the tax on these products will help remove the stigma around these everyday items.

Senator Faith Winter says Coloradans deserve to live with dignity. But for some, they are unable to. Especially with rising inflation costs. She says the removal of this tax will help many pay for these basic human needs.
