This is one of the most interesting free school lunch papers - when districts implement universal free school lunch, it puts competitive pressure on grocery stores, resulting in lower food prices for *everyone* even if they don't directly benefit from school lunches
When schools offer free meals for everyone, local families reduce grocery spending. Large chains respond by dropping prices, amplifying benefits to the broader community, from @jessiehandbury and Sarah Moshary nber.org/papers/w29384

When Republicans are in power, they rack up giant deficits, mainly by cutting taxes on corporations and the wealthy.
Then when Democrats take the reins, Republicans blame them for being big spenders.
It’s always the same story.

Horrifying story out of KY. A crisis pregnancy center (fake health clinic) was not properly disinfecting transvaginal ultrasound probes -- potentially infecting pregnant women with HPV.
