        How does a prison run out of toilet paper? Are there no Costco's? How about a grocery store?

        Can we get the addresses of these prisons so I can mail these women some toilet paper and tampons? WTF WE ARE NOT A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!

        Hey @NPR, your use of a stock photo of unicorns & rainbows on toilet paper is beyond absurd. You infantilized & minimized a serious assault on the basic human dignity of incarcerated women that @newsjunkyjimmy & @kjzzphoenix responsibly reported. FFS get it together & do better.

        The money for sanitary supplies should be deducted from the AZ Dept. of Corrections' administrative budget. Or better yet, from the salaries of the top administrators.

        This also happens in King County, in Seattle Washington. They don’t care either. And unless the inmate has an advocate they fall through the cracks. It’s terrible.

        No sorry, I had to take care of maximum security prisoners in a hospital I worked at, it’s what I do as a nurse and I cried because I did it! But no toilet paper, sorry! There is a limit to my acceptance of hard core crimminals

        No, you’re just being cruel for kicks. I bet you’d be upset if you didn’t have access to sanitary products. Providing sanitary products is a basic human need. Something you don’t seem to get.
