Summary

What the bill does

The FORK Act creates a pilot program to give grants to organizations that serve summer meals to children. The grants can be used to buy, fix, or upgrade vehicles to deliver meals to kids in rural and poor areas. The program would run for three years with $1 million each year.

Why it matters

The stakes

This bill affects children who rely on free meals during the summer, especially in rural areas where getting to a meal site is hard. It also affects local organizations that run summer meal programs, giving them a chance to get up to $100,000 to buy a vehicle.
