Stop summer meals for children not in summer school

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, chapter 10, p. 303. Written by Daren Bakst.

Stop summer meals for children not in summer school

The document says “shouldWho acts: USDAHow: internal managementp. 303 in the PDF
What the document says

“the USDA should not provide meals to students during the summer unless students are taking summer-school classes.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 303

The chapter states that pupils can currently get meals from schools in summer even if they are not attending summer school, which it says has in effect turned school meals into a federal catering program.

What the document actually says

“the USDA should not provide meals to students during the summer unless students are taking summer-school classes.”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 303
That sentence, in plain words

In summer, feed only the children who are in class.

What this is about

Some children get meals at school in summer. They do not have to be in class. The book says only those in class should get them.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
