Establishes "Period Equity and Menstrual Disorders Study Committee" in DOH.
New Jersey's S 3130 establishes a 15-member "Period Equity and Menstrual Disorders Study Committee" within the Department of Health to examine issues affecting people who menstruate. The committee will study unequal access to feminine hygiene products, menstrual disorders, and health disparities, with a focus on minority, disabled, transgender, and non-binary communities. It will analyze current policies on product pricing and taxation, develop strategies to improve affordability and access, and hold public hearings. The committee must submit its first report within one year, including recommendations for legislative or administrative action to address these issues.
