The Senate Resolution introduced by various Pennsylvania senators urges the U.S. Congress to support the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act of 2025. It calls for amendments to federal laws that currently restrict the availability of whole milk and 2% reduced fat milk in elementary and secondary schools. The resolution highlights the negative impact of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which led to a significant decrease in milk consumption among students while allowing access to less nutritious sugary drinks. It emphasizes the importance of whole milk as a source of essential nutrients and its potential health benefits, including improved bone health and reduced risk of obesity.

Additionally, the resolution advocates for the United States Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of Health and Human Services to update federal dietary guidelines to permit the availability of whole milk and 2% reduced fat milk in schools. It cites evidence from surveys indicating that offering a wider variety of milk options could significantly increase consumption and reduce waste. The resolution concludes by requesting that copies be sent to key federal officials and members of Congress to support this initiative.
