MR. PRESIDENT, I RISE TO OFFER AMENDMENT 2702. ("I RISE TO OFFER AMENDMENT 2702" crossed out)

UNDER THE CURRENT SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM, CHILDREN FROM FAMILIES WITH INCOMES AT OR BELOW 130 PERCENT OF POVERTY ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE MEALS. MY (replaced with "this") AMENDMENT IS SIMPLY MAKING THE (replaced with "taking the first step to put the") SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM ON PAR WITH THE GUIDELINES OF THE WIC PROGRAM. (handwritten added sentence: "It will provide meals for children of families with incomes at or below 140% of poverty.")

MR. PRESIDENT, THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. THERE ARE FAMILIES ACROSS THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT HAVE BEEN HIT VERY HARD DUE TO JOB LOSSES-AND IN MANY CASES THE ONLY MEAL THEIR CHILDREN RECEIVE IS AT SCHOOL! OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE DESPERATELY IN NEED AND WE

HAVE A CHANCE TO HELP THEM.

FOR THIS REASON, I AM PLEASED TO INTRODUCE, S. 2702 (crossed out and replaced with "this amendment"). I URGE MY COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT THIS AMENDMENT.

following sentence crossed out:
I ASK FOR THE YEAS AND NEYS.
