" Would you support getting rid of school lunch for vulnerable kids and breakfast and Head Start, for example, and getting rid of childhood cancer research. Do you support that?" GOP Rep: " When you talk about school lunches, hey, I worked my way through high school."

Shameless self promotion: I'm featured in a new episode of one of my favorite podcasts talking about universally free school meals-- npr.org/2024/08/26/119…
If you live in Pennsylvania, go to bit.ly/PALunchAdvocacy and tell your reps that you want kids' lunch debt cancelled and universally free school lunches established state-wide. Thanks Pennsylvania Cancel Lunch Debt Coalition!! You're doing awesome work!

Reminder that tonight (7PM EST) is a panel on the history of school meals in the US (and I'll say some about England, too) with some really awesome folks. bit.ly/schoolmealhist…. @BMIatWork @VaTechSOE
Great opportunity for someone who might want to live in England for a while and study school food there: jobs.wlv.ac.uk/vacancy/resear…
I’m speaking at this, but really I’m super excited to hear more from the other panelists and see some of the exhibit! Register yourself at bit.ly/schoolmealhist…
