StalledEffort

Limit the amount of milk provided through the WIC nutrition program each month.

One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.

What’s happening with this effort?

The proposal to limit milk in the WIC program is stalled in the House Committee on Education and Workforce as of March 2, 2025. Committee members must decide to hold a vote for the bill to move forward, but most bills do not receive a committee vote and fail to advance. This effort has seen no action since March 2, 2025, and follows a similar bill that expired in June 2024.
