Strengthening our Servicemembers with Milk Act
HR 648, the Strengthening our Servicemembers with Milk Act, requires the Secretary of Defense to provide a variety of milk options - including unflavored, organic, lactose-free, and different fat levels - to all members of the Armed Forces at military dining facilities. The bill mandates that installations offer these choices to support servicemember nutrition and dietary needs. It also prohibits purchasing milk from entities owned or controlled by foreign adversaries, as defined by Commerce Department regulations. This policy directly affects military personnel dining at on-base facilities nationwide.
