ACR 69 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges United States President to expand access to menstrual products in schools.

ACR 69 is a New Jersey resolution urging the U.S. President to expand access to free menstrual products in schools. It cites that lack of access causes absenteeism (affecting over half of high school students who menstruate) and health risks like infections, particularly for low-income students. The resolution does not create new law but seeks to encourage federal action under Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in education. It specifically recommends ensuring menstrual products are available in all school restrooms to support educational equity.
