Tell Congress to support Healthy School Meals for All!

School meals are often the only way students facing hunger can get reliable, consistent, and nutritious meals on a daily basis, so we demand that Congress make no-cost school meals accessible for all students. Studies show that students at schools with no-cost school lunch have better standardized test scores, concentration, comprehension, memory, participation, and attendance.

Healthy Meals

SIGN HERE to tell Congress to make sure no child goes hungry during the school day and pass Healthy School Meals for All NOW!

Dear Member of Congress,

Momentum is building across the country for Healthy School Meals for All, with eight states passing no-cost school meals for all policies. A majority of voters (63%) across the country want Congress to pass legislation making free school meals available for all students. We are urging you to support and pass legislation that provides free, healthy meals for all students, including:

The Universal School Meals Program Act, which would create school meals for all nationwide.
Three other bills that have been introduced would increase participation in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), which allows high-need schools to offer free meals to all students:

The School Meals Expansion Act
The No Hungry Kids in School Act
The Expanding Access to School Meals Act

No child should have to wonder where their next meal is going to come from, especially in a school setting. That is why we are calling on you to support and pass legislation that would allow schools to implement healthy school meals for all students.

Moms know that children who have access to no-cost school meals do better both in and out of school. In addition to reducing child hunger, providing school meals at no cost to families helps improve academic performance and student health and eliminates the “lunch shaming” and stigma experienced by many children.

It is time to pass federal legislation that will allow schools to implement Healthy School Meals for All.

Sincerely,
