No child should go hungry at school

Al Franken

A lot of Minnesotans were surprised by a recent study showing that in 46 Minnesota school districts, students are turned away from the lunch line if they can’t pay.

We need to fix this — students do better when they aren’t hungry, and for more than 62,000 Minnesota kids, a nutritious lunch isn’t always in reach

So I’m joining with Governor Dayton to make sure that no Minnesota kid goes hungry in school at lunchtime.

I’ve introduced a plan to expand the school lunch program. A similar measure was just passed by the Minnesota State House. We’ve got good momentum on this issue, and we need your help to keep it growing.

Add your name to our petition calling for expanded school lunches.
