In the San Diego Union-Tribune, Melissa d'Arabian writes in support of SB 138, which would help to paperlessly enroll more than 650,000 students into school meals through Medi-Cal Direct Certification and enable high-poverty schools to make meals available free of charge to all students through a universal meal provision.
D'Arabian commends the bill as "the kind of forward-thinking legislation that could make a big difference for San Diego students and for our community at large."
