Supporters of dairy farming in Pennsylvania are asking for more support from state lawmakers for the industry. At a rally at the state Capitol Tuesday, the executive director of the P-A Dairyman’s Association, Dave Smith, says they need whole milk available again in schools across Pennsylvania. Right now, only one-percent or skim milk is available and if kids don’t like the taste they stop drinking any milk at home at all. House Resolution 402 is sponsored by Rep. Jim Struzzi (R-Indiana), who says he strongly supports the effort to ensure whole milk would once again be available to school children…
The group is also asking for support for a measure that would stop calling milk alternatives, like almond or cashew milk, from being labeled as milk.
