[quote=Anonymous]It's meaningless, but also characteristic of this administration's approach to policy. Childhood obesity is an actual issue in this country, but renaming the Presidential Fitness Program back to the Presidential Fitness Test isn't going to change that. We need: * Access to healthy foods in school. The Trump Administration cut $600m in USDA programming that paid American farmers to provide fresh fruits and vegetables to the country's schools. * Access to healthy foods outside of school as well. The president's proposed budget would cut $1.3b in fresh food and vegetable subsidies provided through the WIC program. * Access to the outdoors. The Trump budget cuts more than $1b from the National Parks Service. * Enough education funding to lower class sizes and get kids off screens. The Trump budget proposed massive slashes to education funding, including funds to help lower class sizes in rural schools. [/quote]
