President Donald Trump signed the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act into law this week. Agriculture groups like the National Milk Producers Federation were pleased with the move, noting that dairy farmers and their cooperatives couldn’t be more thrilled that whole and 2% milk will return to school meals. “Dairy is a nutrition powerhouse that should be used to its fullest potential,” said NMPF President and CEO Gregg Doud. “That means making sure it’s available in the same varieties that families consume at home.” He also said the Federation is ready to help schools and USDA in any way it can as this important legislation gets implemented in schools across the U.S. “We thank President Trump and his administration, our advocates on Capitol Hill, and everyone who’s worked to make school meals better through increased access to dairy,” Doud added.
