2/2: This is an important step towards ending childhood hunger and we couldn't have gotten here without your incredible support and that of our fierce #FeedKidsMA coalition! Thank you for taking action– let’s make sure #SchoolMealsforAll becomes a reality for Massachusetts!
Today, the Legislature will vote on the budget. It will then go to @MassGovernor’s desk. Please join us in urging Governor Healey to sign the final budget with School Meals for All into law.
We applaud the MA Legislature for the inclusion of permanent #SchoolMealsforAll in its proposed budget, but it’s not set in stone just yet.
