Sign the petition: Improve child health through healthy school lunches

USDA

Currently, there is no limit on added sugar and sodium in school lunches. However, for the first time ever, the USDA is working to make some long-overdue changes.

The USDA plans to crack down on added sugars, sodium intake, and flavored milk consumption. Their proposed plan includes putting a cap on added sugars by 2025, reducing weekly sodium limits, and offering more whole-grain options.

Over the past three decades, the child obesity rate in the U.S. has tripled, and diet-related diseases are on the rise. We cannot afford to wait on change any longer.

Sign the petition to stand up to big corporations and demand healthier meals for children in school.
