One state offering something is a start but we're still far behind maternity, pre-k, childhood nutrition, and primary or secondary education in general for most of the population relative to peer nations. Plus this administration's cuts to Medicare or SNAP which will also hit the poorest kids the most. Plus the national debt they are saddled with.

Our children's well being (physical health, mental health, education, etc) is routinely ranked toward the absolute bottom compared peer nations.



… behind in childhood nutrition? Between the WIC program, snap, and school meals there is plenty of resources.

It’s true that it’s means tested, but I’m not entirely sure we need to be providing free meals for rich people.
