Bill would let schools opt out of lunch aid

Because we all know it's better to starve children than to feed them?

Can these asshole right wingers get any meaner?

A bill introduced by Sen. Rich Crandall, R-Mesa, would allow schools to drop out of the National School Lunch Program.

The federal program gives public schools money and food and requires them to serve nutritionally balanced meals. Children whose families fall below certain income thresholds qualify for free lunch or lunch at a reduced price.

Arizona has a state law that requires K-8 district schools to participate in the program, although high schools and charter schools are exempt.

Crandall said the idea behind the legislation, Senate Bill 1061, is to make sure all schools are treated the same.

And don't miss this part:

Crandall is president of a company that oversees USDA child-nutrition programs on behalf of state agencies. He also runs a consulting company that provides dietary services to the assisted-living and long-term care industries.
