Each year, authorities seize enough fentanyl to kill every American 4x over, much of it ordered over the Internet & mailed from China. As the Internet rapidly changed, we failed to keep up. Now we must amend Section 230 to reflect the way the Internet impacts our lives today.

Specifically, these waivers allow meals to be provided with the "best available food options" & still qualify for federal reimbursement, allow "open sites" where all children can eat free in certain communities, & eliminate red tape in the interest of feeding our children.
The coronavirus pandemic is already affecting our students and their education through the closure of schools throughout our state and we must do everything possible to make sure these students don’t go hungry because they’re not in school. https://t.co/makp6RASF0
