Progressive U.S. lawmakers said Thursday that they'll do everything in their power to stop the Republican Party from achieving its stated goal of eliminating a school lunch program that serves low-income communities, which was included in a proposed budget unveiled by the party this week.
The budget makes clear that to the Republican Party, 'every wealthy child accidentally fed is a policy failure,' said Adam Cisroe Pearson, director of the St. Louis Department of Human Services.
