HR 3747 United States House · 118th Congress

To rename the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act, and for other purposes.

HR 3747 is a procedural bill that renames the "Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act" to simply "National School Lunch Act" in its short title. It directly affects over 40 references to the law across federal statutes, including the Child Nutrition Act, Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act, and various farm and food programs. The bill makes no substantive policy changes - it only updates the name in legal references to align with current usage. This is a technical correction to streamline federal law, not a policy reform.
