I cannot believe this day has come. Quite the world. (Mods move to politics if you need to) Measure to supply menstrual products in all school bathrooms passes House By GRACE BARBIC (gbarbic@capitolnewsillinois.com) SPRINGFIELD – A bill that would require schools to provide free menstrual hygiene products in all bathrooms for grades 4 through 12 passed the Illinois House and will now be up for consideration in the Senate. House Bill 156, sponsored by Rep. Barbara Hernandez, an Aurora Democrat, passed on a 68-43 vote. “This bill will help hundreds of young menstruators in the state of Illinois,” Hernandez said. “They will no longer be ashamed to go get a product that they desperately need, that they cannot afford.” Hernandez said in some cases that there are students who are missing school because they are unable to access menstrual hygiene products or don’t feel comfortable going to a nurse’s office or asking a teacher for a pad or a tampon. A similar bill was signed into law in 2017. But Hernandez said her bill is necessary because school districts are not enforcing the existing law. Republicans questioned Hernandez in floor debate about the cost of implementing the measure. Rep. Avery Bourne, a Morrisonville Republican, said school districts are already doing this and the bill “takes away local control” and is “a blanket mandate that will not only be expensive, but reach beyond what the amendment even intends to do.” Rep. Andrew Chesney, a Freeport Republican, said he was mostly concerned about the language requiring the products to be available in all bathrooms. “There have been male and female bathrooms a hundred years plus in this country, and nobody has had a problem taking care of the sensitive nature of being a certain gender,” Chesney said. “But to perhaps put female products in male bathrooms is not only confusing to a sixth-grader, but completely inapplicable. I would really appreciate it if the sponsor would stay the hell out of my bathrooms.” Hernandez said this is necessary so that male friends can help out classmates in emergency situations. Rep. Kathleen Willis, an Addison Democrat, added that this is also a more inclusive approach to protect transgender youth.Willis noted that there may be cases where those who menstruate may identify as male. |

Put pads in a boys bathroom and there is a 1000% chance they are all flushed down the toilet or worse. |

There are no young menstruators here. Only menopausal moody cranks. |
