Organizational letter opposing Whole Milk Act in Farm Bill

The undersigned organizations strongly urge you to oppose S.1957, the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act of 2023, which is also included within the House Farm Bill and Senate Republican

As either a standalone bill or as part of the 2024 Farm Bill, this legislation would allow school meals to offer full-fat (whole) and reduced-fat flavored and unflavored milk, and arbitrarily exempt full-fat and reduced-fat milk from current saturated fat limits in school meals, both of which are inconsistent with the recommendations of the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
