Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act of 2025

This bill would change the rules about what kinds of milk schools can offer through the National School Lunch Program. Right now, schools can only serve fat-free or low-fat milk, but this bill would let them also offer whole milk and reduced-fat milk, whether flavored, unflavored, organic, or nonorganic. The bill also says that a parent or legal guardian, not just a doctor, could provide a written statement to get a milk substitute for a child whose disability limits their diet. Additionally, the fat in milk would no longer count when schools calculate whether their meals meet federal limits on saturated fat.
