As the sponsor is unable to advocate for obvious reasons, I’ll just open up the floor for debate. If another Senator would like to take up sponsorship, you’re more than welcome to make the appropriate motions.

As a Midwesterner I think it's disgraceful that we're rationing corn and beans out to students like this is the Depression or something. Every child should have the chance to be served good helpings of beans and potatoes. They do wonders for your health.

Not so sure about the potatoes there, but I agree in principle. Tongue

Abstain, if I'd had more time I would've amended this to cut out some of it, but I certainly would support some of these points on their own.
