AI Summary

This bill, known as the "Protecting School Milk Choices Act of 2025," amends the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to modify the types of milk that can be offered in school lunch programs. Specifically, the bill requires schools to provide both flavored and unflavored fluid milk to students, and allows schools the option to offer lactose-free fluid milk. The legislation removes a previous clause (clause (ii)) from the existing law and restructures the remaining provisions. By mandating these milk options, the bill aims to give students more choices in their milk selection while ensuring schools have flexibility in meeting nutritional requirements. The changes are targeted at Section 9(a)(2)(A) of the National School Lunch Act, which governs the types of milk that can be served in school meal programs.
