The Food for Thought Act of 2026 is a bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on September 16, 2026. It would change the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to let the Secretary of Agriculture give grants to colleges and universities. Those grants would help provide free meals to low-income students at community colleges, vocational schools, and other eligible higher education institutions.
If passed, this bill could change whether low-income college and trade school students in Houston get free meals on campus. Families with members in community college or vocational programs may want to know.
