Free Lunch For School Kids?

All Missouri K-12 public school students could get free breakfast and lunch. State Representative Brian Seitz, a Republican from Branson, has pre-filed a bill that would require Missouri’s public schools to provide meals to all of their students regardless of income…

Missouri has about 20-thousand state prisoners, compared to roughly 900-thousand K-12 public school students. Seitz says he’s still working out the details on how this effort would be paid for and how much it would cost. He hopes that a partnership could be formed with the federal government to cover costs.
