In order to preserve the health and future of our nation, we petition the Obama Administration to take the necessary steps in order to reduce the vast number of obese children in America. In order to combat this epidemic we propose the restriction of vending machines that allow for the purchase of soda as well as beverages with added sugar. We also propose mandatory healthy meals in schools or federally funded child services. for all children regardless of socioeconomic status. We also encourage greater subsidies to farmers and grocery providers to provide fresh produce and healthier food choices to combat already cheap artificial foods which are increasing the amount of obese children. Finally we encourage the promotion of more physical education classes.
