Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act Moves out of Committee

The Committee on Education and the Workforce votes to advance bill restoring whole milk in schools

U.S. Representative Glenn “GT” Thompson today issued a statement following the Committee on Education and the Workforce’s approval of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act:

“For too long, milk has been demonized, depriving a generation of students of 13 essential nutrients that are key to their overall health and academic success. I am pleased to see my bipartisan Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act move out of the Committee on Education and the Workforce before seeing it considered before the full House. Ultimately, I look forward to restoring access to these nutritious beverages in schools across the country.”
