While I know this may be fruitless, it might be worthwhile to point out to them that the official guidance from NIST and similar organizations is now not to do this.
The IT department where I work required yearly password changes up until I brought this change to their attention, at which point they changed to simply recommending a password change if you have reason to believe it might have been compromised.
