A reader reached out (which I love!) to send me this article about school lunch. The expansion of free lunch from only going to poor children to all children, reduced suspensions amongst poor children. They hypothesize that it comes from a reduction in stigma. Such a powerful and important effect in improving the lives of children.
The impact of free school lunch on grocery prices is my new favorite party fact. ✨ Imagine this benefit spread to broader communities, e.g. through workplaces and community centers!
I found it unclear from the article if there was some sort of legislative change being proposed or if there was some sort of a sunset provision for CEP. Can you explain?

Happy to share! It's definitely the sleeper hit of the school lunch argument.
