Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., on Tuesday defended the impacts of the White House's federal aid freeze on school lunch programs by suggesting that some children should be working instead of receiving free lunch.

During an interview on CNN, McCormick praised the move as a way to broadly re-evaluate how the government allocates funding. CNN anchor Pamela Brown noted that Head Start, which helps provide nutritional assistance to low-income children and families, is one of the programs that could be affected. She pressed McCormick on whether he would support cutting funding for free breakfast and lunches.

It's the responsibility of the parent to feed their kids!

Well is that a surprise, the guy is from Georgia

Comical listening to rationales of the lilly livered GOP politicians who are bending over backwards to kiss Trump’s ass
 
As of the latest information available, there are proposals and discussions about cutting school lunch programs in America, but no definitive action has been confirmed to have been universally implemented across the country. Here's a breakdown:

  • Proposed Cuts: The Republican-led U.S. House Ways and Means Committee has been considering budget cuts that would impact school meal programs. One proposal includes a $3 billion cut from school breakfast and lunch programs, which would affect eligibility for free meals, particularly by raising the threshold for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) from 40% to 60% for schools to offer free meals to all students. This would significantly reduce the number of schools eligible for such programs.
  • Current Status: While there are clear intentions and proposals to cut funding for school lunch programs, as of the latest updates, these cuts have not been enacted across all schools or states. Some states have moved towards ensuring universal free meals for all students, which could mitigate the effects of any federal cuts if implemented locally. However, the situation remains fluid and subject to legislative changes.

Senator Warnoth is from Georgia.

Senator Ossoff is from Georgia.

Peanuts Carter was from Georgia.

Is there there something wrong with being from Georgia, Anchovies?
 
Well it's not the taxpayers


I agree. I don't want the taxpayers to finance "public education", either.

In many cases it's a government subsidized daycare service for working and/or lazy mothers.

If women can't afford to raise their spawn, they should abort them. :thup:
