俄克拉荷马州州长Stitt拒绝联邦第二年夏季食品计划, Oklahoma Governor Stitt declines federal summer food program for 2nd year, continuing state's approach to child hunger through existing programs.

俄克拉荷马州州长Kevin Stitt拒绝连续第二年参加联邦夏季食品计划, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt has declined to participate in the federal summer food program for the second year in a row, with the state opting not to take part in providing free meals to children during their school break. 包括粮食银行在内的批评者认为,联邦基金对于解决儿童饥饿问题至关重要。 Critics, including food banks, argue that federal funds could be essential in addressing childhood hunger. 然而,Stitt认为,国家可以通过现有的粮食方案解决儿童饥饿问题。 However, Stitt believes the state can tackle child hunger through its existing food programs. 2025年,暑期计划将花费俄克拉荷马州500万美元,但州会收到5 000万美元的联邦资金作为回报。 In 2025, the summer program would have cost Oklahoma $5m, but the state would have received $50m in federal funding in return.
