    I mean I do agree with the fact that the bill doesn’t provide funding for the condoms just that the schools need to provide it. That sounds pretty dumb to me.

      I mean but is there explicit funding for providing toilet paper?

      I do think schools are under funded but that’s a lousy reason imo

        I don’t have a strong opinion either way, but it does kind of make sense that loading an unfunded mandate on already under-funded public schools isn’t the best way to come at this problem.

        It’s an American English thing. Sometimes to make a statement sound less intense, people start by saying “I mean.” It’s probably regional, but I’m not sure where people do and don’t say it.
