EXCLUSIVE: Trump plan didn't mention that it put more than 500,000 free school lunches at risk, Democrats say

The Department of Agriculture wants to crack down on eligibility for food stamps, estimating that 3.1 million Americans would lose benefits under the proposed rule. In the process, it determined that more than 500,000 kids would no longer be automatically eligible for free school meals — but didn’t mention that detail, House Democrats say.

Rep. Bobby Scott, D-Va., chair of the House Committee on Education and Labor, believes the omission violates federal requirements and has asked the USDA to immediately revise its plan.
