As you know, No Kid Hungry has been working hard to pass and enact the Build Back Better Act, the budget reconciliation bill that contains one of the most transformative investments in children in decades. It recently passed in the House and is now up for consideration in the Senate. Here’s a quick explainer about the three important pieces of the bill that could tackle summer hunger, strengthen school meals and cut child poverty.
