To kick off National Dairy Month, I visited @HouseAgGOP Chairman @CongressmanGT to deliver a Central Valley favorite—flavored milk. As the only dairyman in Congress, I'll never miss an opportunity to share a taste of the Central Valley with my friends in Washington.

Fresh milk during school meals; cheers to that!  Students across our nation deserve access to milk. Not only is it delicious, but it's part of a well-rounded diet. I am proud to introduce the bipartisan FRESH Act, which supports our students, schools, and dairy farmers.
