Ballot Question 5 is proposing an amendment to the state’s Sales and Use Tax of 1955, to exempt adult and child diapers from sales tax.

A “yes” on ballot question 5 would establish this tax exemption as law for the next 25 years, through the end of 2050.

A “no” would end its journey right here.


Guest: Kelly Maxwell, CEO and executive director, Baby’s Bounty and chair, Nevada Diapering Resources Committee
