Public schools to provide feminine hygiene products.
HB 74 requires Wyoming public school districts to provide free feminine hygiene products (like tampons and pads) in restrooms designated exclusively for female students, starting with the 2026-2027 school year. It directly affects schools serving students in grades 6-12, mandating that districts ensure these products are available, accessible, and that students are informed of their location. The bill appropriates $487,500 to reimburse schools based on actual costs, with limits of $1,100 per 100 female students for 2026-2027 and $850 per 100 for 2027-2028. The bill is pending (failed introduction on Feb. 11, 2026) and would take effect July 1, 2026, if enacted.
