While we work to make school meals free for Minnesota students, the ultimate goal is free school meals for all K-12 students in the US.
Believing in the future means investing in our youth. The simplest solution is to just feed the kids. Just feed the kids.

“Families are having to decide whether they are going to pay their electric bill or pay for their students to eat meals”: After the expiration of pandemic-era waivers that paid for student lunches, school districts across the U.S. are racking up debt to feed hungry kids.

We couldn't agree more @melissahortman! Let's give kids an even playing field by providing free breakfast and lunch for ALL Minnesota students. #freeschoolmeals #schoolmealsforall

When kids come to school in the morning, all of them should be able to go to the cafeteria & get breakfast to start the day off ready to learn. When they go to lunch, everyone should be treated the same way. This is a top priority for DFLers. axios.com/local/twin-cities/…

Looking back, it's amazing to see what we were able to accomplish with this program in 2022. We couldn't have done this without @TheFoodGroupMN and @nmarhinos. Both partners helped distribute tons of fresh produce into the community. Thank you for being with us since the start!

The cost of groceries is up 14% in the Twin Cities from a year ago. This hurts #BIPOC & #rural communities and those on limited budgets most.
@slenarzcoy shares how we can change that.

We are sending extra power and strength to our community this week. The people and lives lost to violence and hate are evidence of the ways racism is upheld in our world.
We believe an equitable and just food system is not possible without equity and justice everywhere.

If you care about mental health in schools, you care about hunger in schools! Food insecurity can have an enormous impact on kids' mental health – let's support Minnesota students by ensuring they have access to nutritious school meals each and every day. #mnleg #minnesota
