Dear John,

The number of people struggling to feed their children has doubled since the
start of the pandemic.

Schools are on the frontline to provide sustenance for these hungry students,
many of whom are students of color. For many children, the meals they receive
from their schools are the only meals they will have that day.

Congress is moving far too slowly to address this crisis. We need you,
John, to demand that your Senators adequately fund
school meal programs.

Use your voice: Help children receive the food they desperately need.

of meals a day to ensure their students are fed. But that has caused many school
districts to go into deep financial debt. If Congress doesn’t relieve that debt
and give them the resources they need, school meals will be in jeopardy this
fall.

While schools grapple with concerns about reopening due to COVID-19 safety, the
Senate must help feed hungry children.

Demand your Senators help schools and struggling families. No child should go
hungry!

Take Action
