We live in a low income area although we are not food insecure, watching this video makes me happy that our schools offer free breakfast, lunch and even dinner to the students. During the summer the schools have free breakfast and lunch for EVERY child regardless if you're enrolled in the school. My point is, be aware of who you vote for make sure they actually care and represent the children and families in your area. ❤
One child policy to reduce poverty and homelessness
🎉SIMPLE Solution!Just give poor elders & kids MORE Food Stamps!! NOT complicated! we did ok until Congress took away our pandemic xtra $ ebt help 3 months ago!!!
❤ALSO We Disabled ELDERs who had our xtra Food stamps CUT back 2 mo ths ago from pandemic extra help! Now may lose my house & had to cut back on nutrition. No one cares about elders/disabled in U.S. – sad.
Чем вы укололись, что о еде заговорили? А поебаться-поебаться расхотелось? 😂
Who cares the parents obviously don't and trade food stamps for drugs or use their money for drugs
Meanwhile the U.S. is throwing away money to israel and ukraine war instead of helping americans. Americans first!!! No money for war!!
A lot of kids have sorry parents who need to work and stay off drugs.
This is all misinformation, food insecure doesn’t mean they are hungry or missing meals, it means they don’t eat what they want or have to buy store brand items. This has more to do with choice than anything else, the motive here is to expand the government programs because making people dependent on the state is their ultimate goal. Remember the state can’t give you anything because the state doesn’t produce anything.
Except the migrants. American kids gotta attempt to cross the border and they will have food for free
Food insecurity starts with your own damn parents. It is their responsibility from the day that you're born. To take care of you properly. Common sense. Usually, its the same story. If your family or guardian is putting important essentials to themselves or another stranger. No sympathy whatsoever. This country doesn't have a lack of food or any supply. Just lack stupidity. If we haven't learn anything from COVID-19. 🤡
My nephew comes home from school every Friday with a backpack full of food and snacks to last the weekend, thanks to a school program combating child food insecurity.
Not illegals tho they are going to food pantries, throw out food that isn't to their liking, and get freebies and free medical care.
If there was only other countries we didn't send our food to 🙄
This as our government uses our tax dollars to fund multiple wars that aren’t ours, and supply aid to illegal immigrants.
Not surprising, look up the amount of child poverty in red states alone. You'll be shocked.
USA poor people obesity is soaring! USA has the Phattest poor people in the universe! When the pandemic food benefit was increased, poor people ran up the price on premium steaks!! True story!
Yes this is correct so when is someone in our government going to supply our children with healthy school lunches before sending arms over seas !
Maybe if our Congress members were as worried about American children as they are about children in other countries, our kids wouldn’t have to worry about food, not to mention safety and a decent place to live
Pander to aliens and bums so they can bring society down more
