    This is the true Tim Walz. Look how he interacted with the kids. He's a teacher and cares about all. Congrats on the VP nod. Make the US Proud as we in MN are already proud of you.
  • It's insane how people are trying to justify starving children in the richest country on earth. Sad.
  • These comments are just sad. These kids get to eat and suddenly people stop caring about children.
  • Now this is something I’d gladly have my tax money go to. I hope more states will adopt this
  • @TheSpasmer
    So proud of you governor. Shame on the Republicans for voting against feeding kids

    JD Vance only hugs his couches with that much affection.

    What a wonderful way to help school kids feel welcome at school!
  • @ayahtarot9305
    If you are pro-life, saving kids or feeding kids should be essential!
  • @TCLExperiment
    I love the comments. People are so mad that kids get food. Stay angry, ghouls.

    Will somebody call up Ron DeSantis text him or send a email. Florida needs to start this as well. I live in Florida I feel like that's not fair to our state and our children. I understand Ron DeSantis has a lot on his plate. It can really help out Florida and our kids need this to, the great idea. 🥁🎸🎷🎸🎷🍕🍕✌️🥓🎹🎹

    Is America ok? Like this isn't a normal thing in the us? Isn't America like one of the wealthiest counties on earth?
  • @leahvon5905
    This is really good news for all kids, thankyou for all your hard work and efforts in getting this bill pass so all kids can eat, I hope that in the future this can become a permanent thing for all kids to be able to eat for free.

    This will make poor families send their kids to school. Brilliant strategy to avoid young poor people to leave school early. I think they do this in most european countries
