HB 4264

Abstract

Creates the Good Samaritan Menstrual Products Act. Prohibits a person, manufacturer, or distributor from being held liable for damages incurred resulting from any illness or disease contracted by the ultimate user or recipient of an apparently usable menstrual product due to the nature, age, condition, or packaging of the menstrual product that the person, manufacturer, or distributor donates in good faith to a nonprofit organization for ultimate distribution to an individual in need of such menstrual product. Prohibits a nonprofit organization from being held liable for damages incurred resulting from any illness or disease contracted by the ultimate user or recipient of an apparently usable menstrual product due to the condition of the menstrual product. Sets forth exceptions. Effective immediately. House Committee Amendment No. 1 Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the following: Creates the Menstrual Products Donor Immunity Act. Provides that a nonprofit organization that in good faith receives menstrual products for distribution without fee or compensation and reasonably inspects the menstrual product at the time of donation and finds the menstrual product apparently usable for humans is not liable in a civil action except for willful or wanton conduct. Effective immediately.
