After looking at this a little closer, I find that Snopes answer is only half true.
What does this Minnesota law require of schools? The law, which took effect Jan. 1, requires schools to provide access to menstrual products such as pads, tampons or other similar period products, "in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12 according to a plan developed by the school district."
As adopted, the law does not distinguish by sex or gender. It says the products "must be available to all menstruating students."
This means transgender boys and nonbinary students — who might menstruate and are permitted to use boys’ restrooms — must also have access to the menstrual products.
That does not mean menstrual products must be stocked in boys’ restrooms, legal experts told PolitiFact.
"As written the law does not require products to be put in men’s restrooms," said Lacey Gero, director of government relations at the Alliance for Period Supplies, a nonprofit organization. "The law leaves it up to the local school districts to create a plan for providing products in restrooms, but does not specify which restrooms." GOOD LORD WHAT COULD THAT MEAN? We already have machines in girls restrooms. Do they think Boys are going to go to someone and ask for them? NO! they are putting them in the boys room of course.
Some states with similar laws specify that period products should be provided only in girls’ restrooms, said Suzanne Herman, a lawyer and legal director at Period Law, a legal group that advocates making menstrual products free. Minnesota does not.
When Timmy was the football coach, I wonder if he called the offensive plays. Bet they had some pretty creative names for his plays. Tampon 21 sweep right on 3.
Share This Story (Center of the American Experiment) — A new law requiring Minnesota public schools to stock free menstrual products in bathrooms used by students in 4th through 12th grade goes into effect Jan. 1, 2024. The requirement was one of the first bills given a hearing by both the House and Senate Education Policy Committees this past legislative session.
Menstrual products include “pads, tampons, or other similar products used in connection with the menstrual cycle.” School districts must develop a plan to make the products available in the boy and girl bathrooms “regularly” used by students, according to the law.
Districts receive “$2 times the adjusted pupil units of the school district for the school year” to pay for the menstrual products.
The tampon machine was installed as part of a new state law requiring schools to provide free feminine hygiene products in women’s restrooms, “gender-neutral” restrooms, and in at least one men’s restroom.
Last year, the West Cook News reported that a feminine hygiene product dispenser installed in a boys bathroom in Illinois was ripped off the wall and stuffed into a toilet.
@trollslayer Just pointing out left wing lies, and Snopes disinformation. Snopes is supposed to be a fact checking source, but they always side with the left.
Tampon machines are clearly being put in boys restrooms, but Democrats and Snopes want us to believe something else.
@trollslayer The claim was that laws were passed that puts tampon machines in boys restrooms.
That is not MOSTLY false. It is MOSTLY true. Thats a big difference, They already had machines in girls restrooms, this law was specifically passed to put them in boys restrooms. Why do they pretend that is not what is happening?
