On 3 October 2016 Vox reported: Through the leadership of First Lady Michelle Obama, the Obama administration seized on a moment when America started paying attention to food, and made fighting obesity a top priority -- both symbolically and legislatively. Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids is now widely considered a landmark piece of legislation and a boon for public health. As Juliana Cohen, a nutrition professor at the Harvard School of Public Health, points out, the National School Lunch Program feeds more than 30 million children every day -- and the majority come from poor families who rely on these meals for up to half their daily energy intake. It will take years to know how much this legislation moves the needle on childhood obesity. But early measures suggest promise. According to the USDA, as of December 2015, 97 percent of US schools are now meeting the new standard.

Global Good News service views this news as a sign of rising positivity in the fields of government and health, documenting the growth of life-supporting, evolutionary trends.
