Bill > A1938

This bill establishes requirements for the State of New Jersey to enter into a contract for the purchase of menstrual products. The Director of the Division of Purchase and Property in the Department of the Treasury is tasked with reviewing state purchasing arrangements and considering options to reduce the cost of menstrual products for state programs and entities. The director is required to advertise for and award a contract to purchase menstrual products, which will be available for use by all executive branch entities and cooperative purchasing participants, including other states, political subdivisions, and public entities in New Jersey. The bill also allows non-profit entities to purchase menstrual products under the state contract, subject to certain rules established by the director.
