Campaign: Periods Are Not a Luxury. Period.

Overview

Thirty-six American states collect sales tax on tampons. To highlight this absurdity, J. Walter Thompson New York created a PSA featuring model/actress Amber Rose wearing what seems a luxurious necklace but ends up being a tampon holder, posing the question “where else would you keep something that 36 states tax like a luxury?”
