The resolution urges the President of the United States to expand access to menstrual products in schools nationwide, emphasizing the importance of such access for educational equity. It references Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in federally funded educational programs. While Title IX does not specifically mention menstruation, the resolution argues that its intent is to reduce disparities in educational opportunities based on sex. The resolution advocates for an interpretation of Title IX that includes provisions for adequate toilet facilities, lenient bathroom policies, and the availability of menstrual products in all restrooms.

The resolution highlights the issue of period poverty, which affects many students, particularly those from low-income backgrounds. It notes that over half of high school students who menstruate experience disruptions in their education due to a lack of menstrual products, leading to tardiness, early departures, or absences. The resolution points out the health risks associated with inadequate menstrual product access, such as infections and toxic shock syndrome. By expanding Title IX to ensure free menstrual products are available in schools, the resolution aims to reduce educational disparities and menstrual-based harassment, reinforcing the necessity of equal access to education for all students.
