Good Samaritan Menstrual Products Act

United States119th CongressHR-6212House of Representatives
Updated: Nov 20, 2025

Summary

This bill aims to encourage the donation of essential menstrual products to nonprofit organizations for distribution to individuals in need. It establishes significant liability protections to facilitate these donations, thereby increasing access to these crucial items. Specifically, the legislation shields a person, manufacturer, or distributor from civil or criminal liability when they donate "apparently usable" menstrual products in good faith to a nonprofit. Similarly, a nonprofit organization receiving these donations in good faith for ultimate distribution is also protected from liability. This protection covers issues arising from the nature, age, packaging, or condition of the donated products, provided there is no gross negligence or intentional misconduct.
