Here is what you can say when you call or email:
"Hi! My name is______ and my zip code is______. Taxing menstrual products is unfair to all women in Texas, especially those in poverty. Please support legislation that eliminates the tax on feminine hygiene products and help promote gender equality. Resources can be found to make up for any lost tax revenue. Texas is a great state in so many ways -- let's make it a great state for women's equality! Thank you."
