Don't those public schools in OK also provide free breakfast and lunch to all needy kids, even in the summer months when they're out of school?
How is it that too much is never enough for you idiot socialists?
Have you ever met a welfare program you didn't love?
wow, just another epic failure in the "gotcha dept"...what's he, 0 fer 600 in the last month?*Huey » 13 Jul 2024, 9:23 am » wrote: ↑ And now for the rest of the story:
"I am satisfied that kids are going to be fed in the summertime through the regular course of DHS and programs for the needy that we have in the State of Oklahoma," he said, adding that because the USDA hasn't finalized the rules of the program, the State couldn't determine what conditions the Biden administration might include.
"We pushed back as the Biden Administration has tried to push social policies down related to funding," he said.
And:
"Oklahoma already has multiple programs to serve food insecure children across Oklahoma, including SNAP benefits, Oklahoma State Department of Education Summer Food Program and the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma’s Summer Feeding Program," he said.

Which he is doing.
Ya know, you sure bitch about debt and when someone does not take money you get pissed because they did not help create more debt.
Now wonder you are a Biden voter. You just aren't that smart.

He joined 12 fellow Republican governors who ultimately refused the money, part of the bipartisan budget agreement Congress reached in 2022. Some said they were reluctant because the country is mired in debt and the government already spends heavily on child nutrition programs — more than $25 billion in fiscal 2023. Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves called the new program an attempt “to expand the welfare state.”
