Bill 118 hr 4466, also known as the Renaming the National School Lunch Program Act of 2023, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to rename the National School Lunch Program to the "Healthy Kids Meal Program" in order to better reflect the program's focus on providing nutritious meals to children in schools across the country.

The bill outlines the importance of ensuring that all children have access to healthy and balanced meals during the school day, as proper nutrition is essential for their overall health and well-being. By renaming the program to the "Healthy Kids Meal Program," the sponsors of the bill hope to emphasize the program's goal of promoting healthy eating habits among children and reducing childhood obesity rates.

If passed, this legislation would require all schools participating in the program to use the new name and branding materials provided by the Department of Agriculture. Additionally, the bill includes provisions for updating any existing materials, signage, and websites related to the National School Lunch Program to reflect the new name. Overall, the Renaming the National School Lunch Program Act of 2023 aims to raise awareness about the importance of providing nutritious meals to children in schools and to encourage healthy eating habits from a young age. This bill has the potential to make a positive impact on the health and well-being of children across the country.
