In Tennessee, the male-dominated GOP legislature was debating which items should be
included in the stateās tax-free holiday when State Sen. Joey Hensley pushed back on the idea of including feminine hygiene products. His reason? Women would hoard tampons. Republicans reportedly pushed back on adding the hygiene products to the list during a Tuesday hearing, arguing that people who use the products could purchase too many if not given a limit. āI would think since itās a sales tax holiday, thereās really no limit on the number of items anybody can purchase,ā state Sen. Joey Hensley, a Republican from Hohenwald.
