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 in menstrual education for
00:14girls and boys and kids of any gender identity in schools. We are not focused on the ways that
00:20something that happens to women and girls everywhere and is a part of life creation
00:25is 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 think
00:34about more universal health care resources for women and girls that are still just women and
00:39girls existing even in the context of crisis or no crisis. That period poverty has remained and
00:45it is keeping kids out of school. And that's something that I think is should really be on
00:49people's mind for local elections and something to advocate for in your community is you don't
00:54should not have to pay for a pad or a tampon. And that is a right that you have as a person
00:58that creates life for your generations in your community. And that's something we can basic,
01:03we can 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 row.
