    There’s so many questions I have for how it’d work. But I can totally see some asshat using it as an excuse to deny some child who has no idea yet free lunch.

      To qualify for the free lunch program money, they have to not discriminate against LGBTQ+ children in the context of the program. They want the right to prohibit all LGBTQ+ children, like punishing trans kids for wearing the clothes they want, or witholding diplomas from same sex couples who attempt to attend the prom. It’s not that they want to slap the free cheese sandwiches from the hands of young LGBTQ+ kids. They want to prevent them from existing entirely, or at least tell their constituents they are trying in order to stir up votes and donations.
