This week, we passed the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act! 🐄🥛
In 2012, then-First Lady Michelle Obama moved to only have low-fat variations of milk in schools as part of the National School Lunch Program. Since then, children across the U.S. have had access only to reduced fat and low-fat dairy in their cafeterias. This week we voted to change that with a bipartisan vote of 330-99.
In , we know how important the vitamins and minerals in whole milk are to growing healthy and strong! The bill moves to the Senate where we hope they'll take the same stand to give children more choices at breakfast and lunchtime.
