    I suppose taxes.

    I’m a republican and I fully support free school meals. We are already taxed for books, building, teachers, etc.

    I’d fully support basic supplies and meals as well. It just makes sense to make sure all students have the basic needs met since we are paying for it.

      Instead of defining yourself by party membership in a group that doesn’t represent you, maybe you should think about not being a member of that party?

      If you only identify yourself as being Republican because you consider yourself to be a conservative then I’ve got good news for you, no need to associate with the wackos, the US Democrats are the conservatives of the countries where there actually exists a political spectrum that extends further left than right of center 👍

        Right now my largest complaint with the republicans is they just want to stop the democrats from doing anything.

        Good ideas should be pushed by both parties. The republicans are rarely pushing their own ideas. They’re just blocking other ideas.

        The basic should be supplied. When I show up to work, I dont have to buy my own paper and pencil. It’s supplied.

        Education is an investment in the next generation. I strongly support it.
