Together, these bills establish and fund a statewide program to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students, ensuring that no child in Michigan goes hungry during the school day.
This legislation is needed because the federal funding from the USDA for school meals is being cut, and states now need to make up the gaps.
This is your opportunity to add your voice in support of this important legislation, and share how the lack of school meals would impact your family, your school, and your community.
On the next screen, please modify your legislative message in two places (shown by brackets): First, to indicate your PTA name, and Second, to show your personal reasons why this topic is important to your family.
Read through the message carefully, and once it looks the way you want it, please send it to your State Senator and the members of the Senate Education Committee to ask them to vote for these bills.
Thank you from Michigan PTA!
