North Dakota proposes free school meals for all K-12 students, backed by high public support.
North Dakota lawmakers have proposed two bills to provide free school meals for all K-12 students, following an 82% public support rate in a recent poll. House Bill 1475 would allocate $140 million from the state's general fund, while House Bill 1553 would use oil and gas tax earnings. In Utah, Senator Luz Escamilla has introduced a bill to offer free meals to all K-12 students, funded through a mix of sources and aimed at improving children's readiness to learn by addressing food insecurity.
