Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill requires each school district, operator of an independent charter
school, and governing body of a private school participating in a parental choice
program to provide free tampons and sanitary napkins in women's restroom facilities
in buildings owned, leased, or occupied by the school board, operator, or governing
body.
The bill creates a revenue limit adjustment for a school district that incurs costs
to comply with the bill. Current law generally limits the total amount of revenue per
pupil that a school district may receive from general school aids and property taxes
in a school year to the amount of revenue allowed per pupil in the previous school
year plus a per pupil increase, if any, as provided by law. However, current law also
includes several adjustments to the general revenue limit.
Under the bill, if a school board adopts a resolution, the school district's revenue
limit is increased by the amount the school district spends in a school year to make
tampons and sanitary napkins available in school buildings.

For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
