Bill overview
This bill requires certain New Jersey libraries, specifically those in municipalities with high poverty rates, to provide free menstrual hygiene products like tampons and sanitary napkins in both women’s and all-gender restrooms. The state will cover the costs associated with providing these products. The bill aims to address ‘period poverty,’ a lack of access to menstrual products that can hinder participation in daily life for many individuals.
