Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act Passes in the House

Earlier this week, the House passed the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act, sending the legislation to the president’s desk for signature. The bill amends the National School Lunch Program to exclude milk fat from saturated fat calculations in school meals, allowing schools to once again consider whole milk as part of their meal offerings. The measure has been championed by dairy advocates for several years and is expected to receive the president’s signature as early as next week.
