The resolution addresses the significant impact of menopause on individuals, particularly older women and transgender or nonbinary people, highlighting the lack of guidance and resources available to them during this transition. It emphasizes that menopause can lead to a variety of health issues, including cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis, and mental health disorders, and that symptoms can vary greatly in duration and severity. The resolution also points out the societal stigma surrounding menopause, which can lead to discrimination in the workplace and significant economic costs due to missed workdays.

In response to these challenges, the resolution calls for the Senate to support initiatives aimed at providing better tools and treatments to enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for those affected by menopause. It also requests that copies of the resolution be sent to the Washington state Department of Health and the Governor, indicating a push for increased awareness and action regarding menopause-related health issues.
