Republicans lose some voters because of the tampon tax. Seventeen red states still have the tax and just one blue state- Hawaii- still taxes period products. In some states a box of tampons costs as much as a box of bullets. When tampons are a necessity in modern society it seems wrong for government to tax female citizens for things that are necessities. Annually the tampon tax costs a lot, like tampons themselves. It does seem gender biased, unequal tax burden.
