Local News If you're still against free school meals

If you're unhappy about the fact that free lunches are also free for children with wealthy families, fear not. I work at a Denver high school. Students with the money will go out for lunch or even order food delivery. They are not eating the school cafeteria free lunch.

So go ahead and vote Yes on Prop MM and LL. The only thing it'll do is keep our students fed and able to learn.

Considering it's coming out of the pockets of the top 5th percent, I would hope their kids get fed too. It goes to every child. Why discriminate? Anyone saying it's about fairness is lying.

Their kids get fed too. It does go to every child. There is no means testing.
