Chairman Boozman Marks Signing of Whole Milk for Healthy Kids into Law

WASHINGTON?- U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Chairman John Boozman (R-AR) released the following statement after watching President Trump sign the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act into law:

"Today is a milestone for the health and well-being of children nationwide. The Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act ensures whole and reduced-fat milk choices return to school lunch programs alongside low-fat and fat-free options.

I am proud to have worked with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to advance this legislation through the Senate and into law. By restoring these healthy, nutritious milk beverages to school cafeterias, we are helping fuel young people's success in the classroom and supporting America's outstanding dairy producers."

The Senate passed the bill November 21, 2025 following unanimous committee approval earlier in the year.
