Don't tax my PERIODS!!

As a daughter of India (hard to say that) it's my right to ask for removal of taxes from Sanitary Napkins. 80% of womens in our country does'nt use sanitary pads because they find it difficult for them to afford it. These accomodities is'nt an option but a necessity for each and every women. Sindoor, kajal, bindis and bangles are tax free as our government thinks that sindoor and bangles are more necessary for women then sanitary pads. GST on sanitary pads should become a point of contention with govt., activists and citizens accusing the government for neglecting the needs of women. The tax on Sanitary pads is 12% and tampons is 18%. Menstruation is a natural and biological process for women. All women on an average menstruate from the age of 12-51. It is systematically discriminatary for women to be taxed for something as basic and necessary like sanitary products. Just like condoms are tax free in India on account of its recognition as a necessity to safegaurd health and life; so should sanitary napkins be exempt from tax. So it's my humble request to the concerned authorities to look upon this issue and to do the needfull. Thank you Your Responsible Citizen Anushka Vijayvergiya

Petition to Brian Moran

Stop VDOC from Policing Periods!

Contraband has existed in jails and in prisons since before the invention of tampons and menstrual cups. There are multiple methods in which contraband is smuggled into correctional facilities. The VA DOC recently issued a new policy in regards to contraband and visitors. This policy would prevent individuals wearing tampons and cups from visiting with incarcerated individuals. At the Virginia Menstrual Equity Coalition, it is our belief that the choice of menstrual products is an intrinsically personal decision - based on health, culture and comfort. The choice of menstrual product one uses should not prevent visits to family and friends. Preventing the smuggling of contraband should be the responsibility of prison staff, not that of civilians exercising their rights to visit. We demand that Brian Moran, Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security, rescind this policy immediately and re-exams the issue of oversight and accountability in prisons and jails.
