The bill establishes a new requirement for the Washington State Department of Ecology to test certain personal hygiene products, specifically disposable and reusable items designed for collecting and absorbing urine and feces, as well as menstrual products regulated by the United States Food and Drug Administration. This initiative aims to identify potentially harmful chemicals or chemical classes present in these products.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Department of Ecology, in collaboration with the Department of Health and community and social justice organizations, must compile and submit a technical report detailing the testing results to the relevant legislative committees by December 31, 2025. This effort reflects a commitment to ensuring the safety and health of consumers using these essential hygiene products.
