Summary
To amend the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to increase commodity assistance under the summer food service program.
Plain-language summary
This bill would change the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to provide more food commodities—basic food items supplied by the government—to the summer food service program. The summer food service program feeds children from low-income families during school breaks when they cannot access school meals. The bill would increase the amount of free food commodities available to schools and organizations running these programs. It is currently in the introduced stage, meaning it has been formally submitted to Congress but has not yet been assigned to a for review.
