Absolutely ridiculous and cruel. But not surprising for Republicans Their mindset of "I got mine, screw everybody else" is so terrible.

Vote em out! not voting is complacency. Not voting is showing that this is acceptable.

I'm not saying voting is the only action needed, but it is an absolute bear minimum.

These chucklefucks always seem to choose the more expensive way of going about it in the name of saving taxpayers money. Abject morons.

Profits are priority over children being able to eat, right? Makes sense to me! /s

This is just plain cruel. But I think they know that.

For a lot of kids, especially those whose families struggle financially, the free school meal is what they have to eat that day, and this would take even that away.

Horrible.

Always think about the children, except when it's something that directly impacts the lives of children.

The machine needs to be fed.

And I declare that voting these child-killers out of office is a 2024 priority.

Using public funds to help people? Not on the GOP's watch.

How anyone with any empathy could ever support these politicians is beyond me.
