Hawaii: Free Period Products

What is happening? Hawaii Governor signed SB2821 (2022 | HI) that requires all public schools to provide free period products.

Why is this important? “It’s simple. No child should be forced to miss class because they can’t afford period products and need to stay home. Thanks to all who helped make this bill a reality for our kids.”

How will this be important? As some states try to remove taxes on period products, others are offering period products for free.
