-- brought by New York, California, Illinois, Minnesota, New Mexico, Vermont and Washington, D.C. -- asks the court to put a hold on the administration’s sodium and whole grain standards.
“Plaintiff States bring this case to protect the health of the schoolchildren in their States by ensuring that nutritional standards for school meals are not changed without an opportunity to comment on the changes and that, as required by Congress, the standards are based on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the recommendations of the National Academy of Sciences, and scientific research regarding children’s nutrition,” the complaint reads.
A second lawsuit was filed Wednesday against the administration by the group Democracy Forward on behalf of the Center for Science in the Public Interest and Healthy School Food Maryland. “American children are fed too much sodium—raising their risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke,” CSPI Vice President for Nutrition Margo Wootan said in a statement.
“Kids are also getting too much white refined flour and not enough whole grains," Wootan said. "After working for over a decade to improve school nutrition and seeing the tremendous progress that schools are making, it’s heartbreaking to see the Trump administration reverse course. The Trump rollbacks are recklessly putting kids’ health in jeopardy.”
MY SONS LUNCHES ARE QUITE GOOD
Obesity
Our President is only fixing things the last administration screwed up.
trump may believe he’s a pharaoh and therefore able to remove all public traces of a hated opponent. Talk about DELUSIONAL! He just wants to remove all things “Obama”. Sad way to live: destroy and not build.
Changes the standards? So what, if your state wants to keep the old standard, keep the old. If you want to serve low sodium meals to your school kids, just do it. This change does not FORCE states to serve more salt.
So there going to serve food that wont get thrown away.
School lunches should use all of the United States ag products.
Because they are garbage..
Trump's obsession/unspoken admiration for the Obama's is unreal.
Let me guess, Democrat controlled states have an issue with the craptastic Michelle Obama lunch program being changed? HUGE surprise there. Any reason to cry and complain. 2 1/2yrs and counting.
In these things the likes of polices that were made let hatred be removed.
Here's a novel idea for all you complainers.....PACK A LUNCH FOR YOUR KIDS!
Who cares! She is no longer the first lady. Her school lunch change was ridiculous. She's a man! Who would listen to that thing anyways
Ah yes, & the 'lunches' my kids & most all the others real children hate that garbage, must have that government tainted special self interest snake oil fluff in it! What A Complete Waist, turning more waist, & I know they are not paying to sue, we have stats on that 2, Jokers!!!
Oh shut up. Lol There were so many schools displaying lunches in the news of what they were eating and how they hated it.
school lunches are bad either way.
FEED THE KIDS DOG FOOD. THEY ARE NOT YOUR KIDS
heads in problems, may not even survive, due 2 your policies, lies & misguided plans as such this over decades, we have the social research forthcoming. People vote for officials, & Dems go full Nutcase Stooges to undermine, certain media piggy backing, NO MORE. WednesdayWisdom
& 1 more thing, 4 Now lol, stop lying & deceiving attempts, WeUSAnotbuyingUrBS, saying 'we have to do this & that to save the ppl of the US. What a self absorbed over inflated/suffed loads. You can't even save yourselves & taking down others, my social services agency is over~
Meanwhile, what you & the country keeps doing! Mercy Mercy Moe things r not the way Marvin & MLK said they'd B GuessTHATISALLOURLUNCH LikeOrLump cause childish temper tantrum control freakish babies must have their way & kill everyone & thing if they have too. Yep, get a real job
Of course they are. The moron tranny Michael Obama pushed inedible food on the poor kids and these states want to make sure it continues-no matter how much food gets wasted because the kids won’t eat it.
More subversive states, people & groups that undermine the legacy of process in government, tax payers expenses & the countries further past, present & future detriment. Another free loaders free rides! Dregs of society, your sordid leaders/follower call
That you Mike?👌 🖖🇺🇸🇮🇱🏳️🌈
In my high school (1993-1997) we had Little Caesar’s Pizza everyday as an option if no one liked what was offered; Chick-Fil-A on Tuesdays & a full salad bar everyday. Seniors were allowed to drive off campus & eat wherever they wanted. I loved it!
What does Trump care, it's not going to affect the lunches his young son eats... Just everybody else's kids...
oh i am glad, this current administration thinks kids should be fed 2 cookies and have a drink of water every 12hrs.
It's getting better everyday.
Championed?
Oh the failed nutrition standards? Gotta force people to do what the government says because the people are too stupid. It's never ever the other way around. Unless it's a conservative. What a bunch of idiots. They'll lose this case like many other Obama era policies.
Government cheese was constipating the kids trump needed to make a change
More proof that the Democrat Party is made up of tons of lawyers.
😂😂😂😂
Trump prefers students who skip lunch.
Michael or Michelle?
Trump has negative thoughts throughout whether its right or wrong.He has no sense of judgment
How on earth did we live thru school in the 70’s?
