No child should go hungry in school. PLEASE SUPPORT: Universal School Meals Program Act

No child should go hungry during the school day. But millions of children across the country live in food-insecure households and struggle with hunger.

Hunger negatively impacts students’ mental and physical health as well as their ability to learn and reach their full potential in the classroom. No student should be forced to learn on an empty stomach.

That’s why Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Ilhan Omar introduced the Universal School Meals Program Act, a bill to establish universal school meals for all students nationwide. Add your name to show your support →

This bill would ensure every school-age child regardless of income receives a free breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack every day at school from pre-school through high school. It would also wipe away all existing school meal debt, eliminating the shame and stigma associated with it.

Nearly 75% of Americans, including a majority of Democrats and Republicans, support permanent universal school meals. Urge Congress to pass this legislation to end child hunger and meal debt in schools ASAP!
