Nevada sales tax is avg 6.85%. Medical items are exempt, except feminine hygiene products needed monthly (tampons and pads) by 49.5% of population in Nevada. This would make the items tax exempt saving women money every month.

Make Toilet Paper tax exempt....................
This issue has been floating around the State for about five years. At one point the backers even wanted feminine Hygiene products to be “free”.
Nevada has a sales tax?
I thought gambling brought in so much money, that’s Nevada didn’t have income and sales tax? Clearly I was wrong.......
next there will be a special tax on condoms.
It probably already is. Most “necessities” are exempt in most states. “Luxuries” are usually taxable.
There is no income tax. Though they just did pass a “Commerce Tax” which affects only the largest of corporations. It’s a gross receipts tax as opposed to an income tax.
What about bandaids, condoms and kleenex? How about lollipops for those who need a sugar boost?
Always vote to lower or eliminate taxes.
Whiskey! Don’t forget whiskey.

Yes it does, generally 8.25% but cities can also add on to it if approved. And as noted no state income tax
“next there will be a special tax on condoms.”
A tax on condoms is better than a tack on a condom.

Just what Nevada needs, selective taxing on feminine products. Guess there are a lot of less important things to worry about.
“Discrimination towards older women.”
It would not impose a tax on older women.
How about make everything tax exempt? Fair for everyone.
California has been locusting the state, so fees and taxes will incrementally increase just a little at a time. I am sure the no state income tax and the low property tax are number 1 long tern targets for destruction

What about no tax on feminine hygiene products?
Quite Frankly, I do see any problem with getting rid of the sales tax for women’s products. In a sense, it is a medical product. Women of a certain range of age are required to purchase the products to prevent a biological situation. Of course, toilet paper should also be tax free too.
