## Resource

Three years after New Mexico passed a law mandating free menstrual products in schools, many districts are ignoring it—leaving students without access, missing class, and schools without clear guidance or accountability. Despite millions in state funding, the money wasn’t tied to period supplies, and local districts, not the state, are responsible for enforcement—often only acting after media pressure. The law’s noble goal—to end period poverty and boost attendance—remains unfulfilled, exposing a critical gap between state intent and local execution.
