An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.177, No.175), known as The Administrative Code of 1929, in powers and duties of the Department of General Services and its departmental administrative and advisory boards and commissions, providing for menstrual hygiene products in State buildings.
HB 337 requires Pennsylvania's Department of General Services to provide free menstrual hygiene products (such as tampons and pads) in at least half of all bathrooms across state-owned buildings, including government offices and courthouses. The bill mandates installation of dispensers and disposal bins, along with public signage, to ensure accessibility without cost to users. Exceptions apply to buildings without bathrooms or those not regularly occupied, such as storage facilities, maintenance sheds, or unoccupied structures. This policy change directly affects the general public using state buildings and the Department of General Services, which must implement the requirements within 60 days.
