Guest guest Posted February 14, 2003 Report Share Posted February 14, 2003 This is a subject near and dear to my hear and I really think this is important to the EarthSave mission. I know many of us in SBVS agree as well so I am posting the info here. Dina CALIFORNIA'S " HEALTHY SCHOOL LUNCHES " RESOLUTION (ACR 16) Assemblyman Joe Nation of Marin County has introduced a Assembly Concurrent Resolution 16 calling for schools to offer a daily plant-based vegetarian alternative on the daily lunch menu. ACR 16 is about to go into a hearing by the education committee. The letters of support sent to Assemblyman Joe.Nation (or fax to 916-319-2106 or call 916-319-2006) will be presented to the committee and are very influential as to whether the ed committee lets the resolution get to a vote by the legislature. Once passed by committee, the legislature is very likely to pass it. You can link to your particular legislator directly at www.leginfo.ca.gov (you just enter your zip). Letters from parents, kids , organization leaders, health advocates, environmental activists, etc. are so very much appreciated; not just within California, but nationwide can be effective too. For more information and to review the resolution in it's entirety visit www.veggieschoolunches.com click on State Resolution. THANK YOU, thank you for all your help helping kids, the animals, and their planet. Please feel free to pass this email to others who might share in our goals for a better, healthier world.
