Evidence

Today, U.S. Congressman Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5) announced new, federal legislation, the Feed Our Kids Act, which would provide free breakfast, lunch, and afterschool snacks to every student in K-12 public schools across America.

Within the lookback window, Gottheimer publicly introduced the promise as federal legislation, but this is an announcement rather than enactment.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Gottheimer introduced federal legislation, the Feed Our Kids Act of 2026, that directly matches the promise to provide free breakfast, lunch, and afterschool snacks to every K-12 public school student nationwide. However, the evidence shows the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, with no enactment or implemented federal program delivering the promised universal benefit. This counts as a serious legislative attempt during the same congressional term, but not fulfillment of the promised outcome.
