New Jersey ACR117 urges the U.S. President to expand access to menstrual products in schools.

New Jersey ACR117 urges the President of the United States to expand access to menstrual products in schools. The resolution argues that Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in federally funded education, should be interpreted to include free menstrual products in all restrooms. This expansion aims to reduce educational disparities and menstrual-based harassment in schools. The resolution highlights that without access to menstrual products, many low-income students who menstruate face significant challenges, including missing school or resorting to unsafe alternatives.
