Bill overview
This bill, the Milk in Lunches for Kids Act of 2019, aims to allow more schools to offer milk as part of the National School Lunch Program. It changes regulations to permit the serving of whole milk and milk with 2% fat, rather than only lower-fat options. The bill directs the Department of Agriculture to adjust how milk fat is counted when determining the overall saturated fat content of school meals.
