| No Free Lunch: Biden Admin Will Pull Meal Funding for Schools That Don't Comply With Its LGBT Agenda |
| 2022-06-03 |
| [FreeBeacon] The Biden administration is requiring schools to comply with its LGBT policies or lose billions in federal funding for school lunches. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service announced in May it will prevent low-income students from participating in its National School Lunch Program if their public school does not adopt the administration's interpretation of Title IX, which holds that the federal civil rights law's provision against discrimination based on sex includes designations of sexual orientation and gender identity. The move was originally reported by The Center Square. A spokeswoman for Florida governor Ron DeSantis (R.) said the Biden administration’s decision to "withhold food from disadvantaged children in order to advance a deranged political agenda" was "appalling." "We will not allow Biden to force Floridians to choose between children’s food and parents’ rights," DeSantis’s press secretary Christina Pushaw told the Washington Free Beacon. "That is the kind of ’decision' that a totalitarian regime would force upon its citizenry." South Dakota governor Kristi Noem (R.) told the Free Beacon her state will take legal action. "Joe Biden has threatened to take away children’s school lunch money to pursue his radical agenda," Noem said. "He’s targeting states like ours that make it clear biological men do NOT belong in girls’ bathrooms and sports. If you act on this, Joe, we’ll see you in court and we will win."

| #6 The policy may not stand up in court, will definitely energize the conservative base, and will push more minority voters towards the GOP. Other than that it is brilliantly conceived. |
