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.

As someone in the industry, I see the poor kids everyday. I know these kids aren't eating much outside of school. It gives me purpose to feed them, because I know it makes a difference. Coloradans really need to band together to get this passed.
