Brian Dittmeier, director of LGBTQI+ equality at the National Women’s Law Center (NWLC), said in a July 9 statement: “Fresh off cutting food assistance for millions of Americans, the Trump administration is finding new ways to take food away from hungry children. With an estimated 2 million LGBTQI+ students across the country, the Trump administration is encouraging schools to turn the other way as marginalized youth face discrimination in the lunch line. No student should be denied food simply because of who they are or who they love.”
