    $10 billion funded school lunches for a year during COVID and we should have kept it going. School kitchens are back to having to try to collect “lunch debt” again. So how is less than a fifth of that going to end hunger? This is just election posturing and empty promises. Look for more of these coming soon from the right.

      Not American, making a number of assumptions on your system.

      This 10 billion funded school lunches for everyone, at a multitude of different places. It was broad, unfocused, to cover something now.

      How will this 1.7b be applied? Is it given, is it establishing ongoing sources, long term investment in assets?
