S2611 requires each public higher-education institution in New Jersey to form a menstrual equity task force. The task force, appointed by the institution’s president, will develop a plan to improve menstrual equity on campus. This plan must include estimates of need, distribution locations, cost projections, and an implementation timeline.
The New Jersey State Senate passed S2611 on March 18, 2024 by a vote of 36 to 2. We have assigned pluses to the nays because taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund unnecessary task forces that push ideological agendas under the false pretense of “equity.” Equity does not promote true equality — instead, it enforces government-mandated outcomes that redistribute resources unfairly. Public universities have become places of Marxist indoctrination, and funding should be cut off.
