State of Pennsylvania Archives: on Welfare & Poverty

Josh Shapiro: We're funding the summer food program so no kid goes hungry

We're continuing to fund universal free breakfast during the school year, but we're also making sure no kid goes hungry during the summer by funding the summer food service program. That's something we should be proud of. And at a time when some Governors are eschewing federal funding that would ensure kids are well-fed over the summer, we've already shown that we--Pennsylvania Democrats and Republicans alike--care about our kids and that we will come together to feed them.
