Beto Backs Menstrual Equity Act
If ever a man could menstruate, it would be Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke, so it comes as no surprise that on National Period Day he proclaimed his support for the Menstrual Equity Act:
In detention centers and in prisons, in big cities and small towns, women across America don’t have access to the period products they need. On #NationalPeriodDay, men need to join women in demanding real change—which is why I’m supporting the Menstrual Equity Act.

Beto loses PC brownie points for failing to realize that women should not be singled out as the only ones who have periods. P&G knows better.
Regarding H.R. 1882: Menstrual Equity For All Act of 2019, Well Insiders writes that it will ensure that…
…free menstrual hygiene products are available to students, low-income individuals, homeless individuals, people who are incarcerated, those working for large employers and in all public federal buildings.
It’s nice to see Democrat congresscritters with something on their minds besides impeachment.
No doubt the Founding Fathers would have listed the provision of publicly financed tampons among the enumerated powers of the federal government if they weren’t such sexist patriarchs.
Hat tip: Maggie’s Farm.
