I'm not sure about this bill lowering the minimum identified student percentage for universal meal service in high poverty areas to 25 percent. It seems like it could have negative consequences for the quality of school lunches and the overall well-being of students. I'm concerned about how this change could impact the health and nutrition of students in need. I hope there is more information available to help me understand the potential effects of this bill.
