Fund free menstrual products and access to drinking water in public

What the petition asks
We want the government to fund period products so women and girls can access them for free. We also want them to guarantee access to clean, free drinking water in public and high traffic areas.
People living unhoused or in poverty often can't afford pads, tampons, or bottled water. We think access to menstrual products and clean drinking water is a basic human right, not a luxury. Using the wrong products or no products in period cycles could cause infections and health problems.
