Pink tariffs, also known as the 'pink tax,' result in women paying higher prices for everyday goods compared to men, affecting items like razors, clothes, and hygiene products. Lawmakers including Rep. Fletcher, Rep. Pettersen, and Rep. Kuster are introducing legislation to study and address this gender bias in the tariff system. The pink tax is seen as a form of gender inequality that impacts women's budgets and economic standing.
The pink tax and greedflation are a double whammy for American women. When women are forced to pay more than men for the same goods & services, it not only takes a toll on their budgets & bank accounts, but also puts them at a disadvantage in our economy. https://t.co/mTDjpF1gdx
Tariffs on women's clothes are, on average, higher than tariffs on men's clothes. | @DominicJPino https://t.co/kLOuzjfBZw
Pink tariffs lead to women paying more for everyday products than men, from razors to clothes to shampoo & more. I was proud to join my @NewDemCoalition colleagues & introduce legislation to target these unfair taxes that raise costs for women in NH & across the country. https://t.co/Z7T5I3L3pk
Gender bias in our tariff system results in higher prices for women on everything from clothing to hygiene products. I am proud to lead this legislation with @RepFletcher and @NewDemCoalition to address gender inequality in our trade system. https://t.co/msjbgA27kt
Pink tariffs may directly contribute to women paying more for everyday goods than men, including everything from razors to clothes. That's why New Dems @RepFletcher & @RepPettersen are introducing the Pink Tariffs Study Act to examine the prevalence and impact of pink tariffs. https://t.co/0X48JfFktW
