Healthy School Lunches

Congress is revising the Child Nutrition Act, which determines what foods are served in schools across the country. Let's encourage congress to include healthy non-dairy vegetarian options in school lunches.

You can sign the petition here. Tell others about this opportunity.

California residents:

Bay Area Congress members, Rep. George Miller (parts of Contra Costa and Solano counties), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (San Francisco County) and Rep. Lynn Woolsey (Marin County and parts of Sonoma County) all sit on the Committee of Education and Labor and will have a strong influence on the new Child Nutrition Act.

We need to tell Reps Miller, Pelosi and Woolsey that students deserve nutritious foods--more fruits, vegetables, vegetarian foods, and healthful nondairy beverages. Please contact lbeck@pcrm.org if you are interested in gathering signatures, distributing information, or attending a letter-writing party in your area.
