Out to (School) Lunch
The New York Times reports:
More than 100 House Democrats, including leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus and the Congressional Progressive Caucus, have signed a letter to Speaker Nancy Pelosi opposing the use of food stamp money to pay for the expansion of child nutrition programs. Labor unions, including the A.F.L.-C.I.O. and the National Education Association, and women’s groups have sent similar letters.
How dare they cut food stamp benefits to pay for child nutrition programs! Don’t they know that money is sacrosanct?
