It’s #NationalSchoolLunchWeek! According to @threesquareLV, over 62% of children in CCSD received free or reduced-price meals in the 2017-18 school year. That's more than 203,000 students who came to school hungry & unprepared to learn. #NSLW18

While school meals keep children healthy & focused during the school day, kids in food-insecure households sometimes go hungry when school is not in session. No child should wonder where their next meal is coming from when they leave school.

That’s why I’ll be reintroducing the #WeekendsWithoutHunger Act, a bill to provide nutritious food to at-risk school children over weekends and holidays. Because a vacation from school should never mean hunger for children. #NSLW18
