A hearing of the Senate Agriculture Committee in Washington, D.C. Monday marked the beginning of the reauthorization of federal child nutrition programs, including the School Lunch and Breakfast Programs, the WIC Program, the Child and Adult Care Food Program. Senator Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, said the hearing deals with a crucial part of reforming our American health system, promoting health and wellness, and preventing health problems, through better nutrition.
"Our nation's system is in crisis," Harkin said. "We simply cannot continue any longer into the 21st Century suffering under a system that was outmoded in the past century. Families across America have understood the failure of our nation's health system for years they suffer through it daily."
