Good Samaritan Menstrual Products Act

AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would protect people, manufacturers, and distributors from civil or criminal liability when they donate usable menstrual products in good faith to a nonprofit organization for distribution to people in need. Nonprofits that receive these donations in good faith would also be protected from such liability. The protection would not apply to gross negligence or intentional misconduct that causes injury or death to a user. "Apparently usable" products are those that meet all federal, state, and local quality and labeling standards, even if they may not be easy to sell.
