                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
   Expressing the sense of the Congress that federally funded school 
            lunches should provide optional meatless meals.

Whereas conscientious objection has long been recognized as a valid reason for 
        exemption from induction into the Armed Forces of the United States;
Whereas an increasing number of school youths are conscientiously committed to 
        compassionate lifestyles which include rejection of meat diets; and
Whereas federally funded school lunch programs seldom provide non-meat meals 
        with due regard for other reliable sources of necessary amino acids: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of the Congress that federally funded school lunch 
programs should provide nutritious non-meat meals for students who 
conscientiously believe such meals to be best for themselves.
