Missouri Senate votes to end sales taxes on guns, diapers, pads and tampons

So, have you heard about the Missouri Senate voting to end sales taxes on guns, diapers, pads, and tampons? I found it really interesting. Basically, the Senate voted to exempt these items from state and local sales taxes in an effort to make them more affordable for consumers.

The bill has two main components: first, it removes sales tax on guns by defining them as personal property (just like a car). Second, it exempts feminine hygiene products, baby diapers, and baby wipes from sales tax. This is great news for those who need these products and struggle to afford them.

Personally, I think it’s a good move. I remember when I was a broke college student, and buying feminine hygiene products was always such a financial burden. It’s unfair that people have to pay extra taxes on necessary items like these. By removing the sales tax, it’s one step closer to making basic necessities more accessible.

Overall, the Missouri Senate’s vote to end sales taxes on guns, diapers, pads, and tampons is an important step towards making essential items more affordable for the people who need them the most. It’s worth keeping an eye on other states that may follow suit in the future.
