Happy Opening Day! 👩⚖️
It was awesome to hear #PeriodPoverty be discussed in the @HawaiiSenate opening remarks as a legislative priority. For 3 years teachers & students have been trying to get a bill passed.

We’re going to end #PeriodPoverty in Hawai’i schools during the 2022 Session of the Hawai’i State Legislature. That’s the tweet.
Stay tuned for how YOU can help #808Educate teachers!
We're continuing our fight to end period poverty in Hawai'i, particularly among our students who remain one of the most vulnerable groups in our community. We're hopeful that this time, our bill for schools to provide free menstrual products will pass.
Let's end period poverty!

So glad you got our sign @kriscoffield - get a sticker too!
You’ve been on this mission w/ us (to end #PeriodPoverty in schools) since 2019. The bill to provide FREE period products in schools has a lot of traction going into this legislative session 🤞🏻 #EndPPinHI #808Educate
Menstrual equity is a matter of #genderjustice. A national study found that students who are unable to afford menstrual products are six times more likely to be absent or late. To deliver a quality education for all students, we should make menstrual products free in all schools.
Mahalo to these senators who stood up for Hawaiian land rights and voted with Senator Acasio against HB499.
Good News for Waiākea High School.
Governor Ige has just released $5 Million to finance the design and construction of the Girls Athletic Locker Room on campus.
Yes, it's not Friday yet... But last Friday was "Hemp Aloha Friday" started by retired Rep. Cynthia Thielen.
