Ends extra taxes on baby diapers and other hygiene items

This bill would stop the President from adding new taxes on essential baby items like diapers and wipes. It would also get rid of any existing taxes on these products that were put in place under certain emergency powers.

What Would Change

Today, the President can place extra taxes, called duties, on imported baby hygiene products under certain emergency laws. If this bill passes, the President would no longer be able to add these specific taxes on items like diapers and baby wipes. Any existing duties on these products under those emergency laws would also be ended, and similar taxes from other powers would be canceled.
