Six states and the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration in federal court on Wednesday for attempting to ease school-lunch nutrition standards

WASHINGTON—.

The suit is the first challenge against the administration’s efforts to undo Obama-era regulations, championed by former first lady Michelle Obama, that restrict the contents of school-provided meals in a bid to make them healthier.

They have the freedom to offer the right food. Why sue over that?

That makes no sense.

rolandsmartin No protections at all, healthcare, food, drinking water, this president is the worst

Great. Parents know better than trump what’s best nutritionally for their children. little donnie is the epitome of a poor diet, lack of exercise, and poor health. Hell, a 100 year old grandma could run his lardass into the ground on a golf course without a golf cart. A Veteran

🤷‍♀️Those states can’t implement their own standards? They need daddy, big government, to tell them what to feed the kids? Surely it’s a story left over from April fools. 🙇‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Thank God! His crusade to destroy healthy meals for our kids is unacceptable.

Sorry, but no one wants to eat Michelle’s crap menu.

Stupid, grandstanding, POTUS-hating, crybaby states... just create *state* school lunch rules! SchoolLunches MAGA

They need charging. Kids don’t eat them

Really need cuts in these states budgets. Clearly too much staff chasing any lawsuit opportunity.

Lentil casserole, sounds great, looks like shit, tastes like crap

More fake news....

How much nutrition is in a school lunch that ends up in a dumpster because kids won't eat it?

Wait! Did they ask the school meal architect, first?

If that's school lunch, it doesn't look very nice. justsaying

Why can't states decide?

are we surprised? This is the organization that greets sports championship teams with a buffet of fast food.

They sued the government for easing standards? How does that work, exactly? Don't they know they can continue to impose whatever standards they want at the state level?

Ridiculous. They can pay for it themselves. federalism

Can’t those states just implement the restrictions themselves? Isn’t that how federalism works?
