Texas

Coordinated by Girl Up North Texas Coalition, IAD efforts in Texas are fourfold:

• Fundraising for local women's shelter made vulnerable due to the power outages and storms in Texas

• Collecting menstruation products across the metroplex

• Hosting a panel discussion on the history and multifaceted experiences of period poverty

• Lobbying Representatives Colin Allred and Rep Eddie Bernice Johnson from the 30th and 32 Congressional District of Texas, and District 100 House representative Jasmine Crockett in support of Menstrual Equity for All Act and the Menstrual Products Right to Know Act by Congresswoman Grace Meng
