The law, which was passed in Minnesota last year, includes language requiring menstrual products to be available in bathrooms of all schools for grades 4 to 12 as a way to accommodate transgender students.

As part of their effort to portray Tim Walz, the new Democratic vice-presidential candidate, as a far-left liberal, the Trump campaign attacked the Minnesota governor on Tuesday for signing a bill last year that provides access to menstrual products for transgender students.

At issue is broadly inclusive language in the law, which states that products like pads, tampons and other products used for menstruation “must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12.” Republican state lawmakers in Minnesota had tried — and failed — to amend that bill so that it would apply only to “female restrooms,” though some Republicans went on to vote for the final version of bill.

      Bob Dole spent his last years shilling for viagra, and that’s considered normal and cool. Gingrich is on his third wife after cheating his way through the Clinton blowjob impeachment. Donald Trump is out there shedding donor cash to hush up the porn star he took to pound town on the campaign trail.

      But god fucking forbid a teenager girl have access to a sanitary napkin in a public setting.
