The "Menstrual Equity For All Act of 2025" seeks to combat "period poverty" by enhancing the availability and affordability of menstrual products across various settings. The bill's findings emphasize that menstrual products are a monthly necessity for millions, and their lack can adversely affect health, well-being, and educational or employment opportunities, disproportionately impacting marginalized communities. For students , the legislation amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to require free menstrual products in elementary and secondary schools. It also establishes a competitive grant program for institutions of higher education to provide free products on campus, prioritizing community colleges and institutions with high Federal Pell Grant enrollment or minority-serving designations. The bill addresses incarcerated individuals and detainees by mandating free, on-demand menstrual products in state and federal correctional facilities, with a provision to reduce grant funding for non-compliant states. Furthermore, it allows funds from the Emergency Food and Shelter Grant Program to be utilized for providing menstrual products to homeless individuals . To expand healthcare access, the bill includes menstrual products as a covered benefit under Medicaid . It also requires employers with 100 or more employees to provide free menstrual products and mandates their availability free of charge in covered restrooms within Federal buildings . Finally, the legislation increases funding for the Social Services Block Grant program , earmarking a significant portion for states to distribute free menstrual products to low-income individuals. It also prohibits states and local governments from imposing sales taxes on menstrual products and creates a competitive grant program under TANF to help eligible families purchase these essential items.
