Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) jointly introduced on Tuesday the Universal School Meals Program Act, a bill that would help provide three free meals per day for all U.S. school children.

In the richest country in the history of the world, when the top 1 percent are making more than they ever have before, it is simply outrageous that 1 in 5 children will go hungry this year, said Sanders in a statement.

School meal debt and lunch shaming the practice of denying students hot or standard lunches if their families have unpaid meal fees have been recently spotlighted. Earlier this week, California banned lunch shaming with the signing of a bill that guarantees all students receive a meal of their choice even if they have accrued outstanding balances

This should be a no-brainer. Anyone who knows about education, knows that a hungry mind cannot learn. Children have no ability to provide for themselves and need food and education if they will ever have a chance to do so.

How in the world off base are you going to get? Everybody knows that nobody, children included, eats food with their mind. Eating food is a body thing, not a mind thing.
