00:00Another thing that I would say is important in regards to women's health care is also period
00:03poverty. And a lot of women do not have free menstrual, we do not have free menstrual products
00:09provided to students federally in schools. We do not have access to menstrual education for
00:14girls and boys and kids of any gender identity in schools. We are not focused on the ways that
00:19something that happens to women and girls everywhere and is a part of life creation
00:24is not considered, is considered something that people would have to pay for and also goes into
00:29the economic question before. So abortion is clearly also on the table, but we need to
00:34think about more universal health care resources for women and girls that are still just women
00:39and girls existing, even in the context of crisis or no crisis, that period poverty has
00:44remained and it is keeping kids out of school. And that's something that I think should really
00:49be on people's mind for local elections and something to advocate for in your community
00:53is you should not have to pay for a pad or a tampon. And that is a right that you have
00:58as a person that creates life for your generations in your community. And that's something we
01:03can basically advocate for on a basic fundamental level that we should really bring into the
01:07conversation of women's health care, even in the face of Roe.
