I appreciate you and Ranking Member Stabenow holding this hearing today, and as we do prepare to reauthorize the child nutrition legislation this coming year, we need to, I think, take an objective and bipartisan critical assessment of the programs and make sure that they are working in an efficient, effective, and accountable manner for the people that they are intended to help.
Thune emphasizes the need for bipartisan evaluation of child nutrition programs.

It’s a great message. I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.
The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.
I just think, if you’re looking at issues that we want to get at the heart of what everybody seems to be saying, the Democrats and others are saying, are important, we're concerned about.
