President Obama signed a government funding extension that included 2012 appropriations funding for USDA and five other agencies on Friday, November 18.
The bill also included the bipartisan Senate amendment sponsored by Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Mark Udall (D-CO) and adopted on October 18 by unanimous consent. The amendment prohibits the use of U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) funds to implement rules that would set maximum serving limits on vegetables, including potatoes, in school meal programs.
