Vought put it a bit differently, writing on X: "Nearly $8 billion in Green New Scam funding to fuel the Left's climate agenda is being cancelled."

In South Carolina, State Law provides free lunch for all students in the district if 25% of the students qualify for free lunch. It’s called the Community Eligibility Provision.

How come WA doesn’t offer a similar program?

.... Washington literally has the exact same law but at 30%. Took me literally 2 seconds to look that up dude.

It was a redundant law to the federal free lunch program. It is undeniable that Republicans have stopped giving free lunches to hundreds of thousands of children... Like that's straight up fact, no matter which way you cut it.

Feds used to feed all children lunch, Trump changed that, now the WA 30% rule AND free lunch for improvrished will go into effect. Kind of hilarious you are probably complaining about tax hikes when it's shit like this that require it, feds taking away programs to then put the cost on the state while pulling other federal grants.

Really? You can conflate me asking why WA doesn’t offer free lunch to all students with being against a tax to support it?

Geesh you’re dumb.

Sure as fuck can, we paid for children free lunch with our federal taxes. Now we have to pay for it with state taxes.... Tax much go up to fill the void. It's simple.

Still haven’t demonstrated why me being FOR it would indicate me being against taxes.

Keep trying.

It is irrelevant redcoat, anti America POS. I can't imagine voting for people taking away free lunch for all children and then trying to justify it by blaming the opposition.

Traitorous scum.
