Child Nutrition Hearing Questions

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

In his questions at the Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee hearing on the Reauthorization of U.S. Child Nutrition Programs, Senator Dick Lugar asked Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to elaborate on how the Departments of Health and Human Services, Education, and Agriculture plan to collaborate to improve school nutrition and lower incidences of childhood obesity. Citing recent reports that about 75% of our nations 17 to 24 year olds are ineligible for military service because of poor health and education, Senator Lugar encouraged Vilsack to continue to work with Secretaries Duncan and Sebelius to better connect federal nutrition programs with education and health programs not only to help our young people be better citizens and parents, but also to strengthen our national security. Likewise, Senator Lugar asked Secretary Vilsack to comment on how USDA and the Obama Administration propose to finance expansions to federal nutrition programs in the upcoming child nutrition and WIC reauthorization bill.
