Michelle Obama mandates Feds weigh children in daycare!

Pretty soon FLOTUS will have Feds show up at our door with a measuring tape.

Washington Free Beacon reporter Elizabeth Harrington has made it her beat to report on the First Lady’s ongoing nanny state program where broccoli rules – like it or not.

Her latest report is not likely to earn the failing program any more popularity then ruining Taco Tuesdays did!

Harrington writes:

Bureaucrats from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will weigh and measure children in daycare as part of a study mandated by First Lady Michelle Obama’s Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act.

The agency published a notice in the Federal Register on Friday proposing data collection on what meals are served in professional and home daycare facilities and how much physical activity children perform.

Aside from assessing how healthy the food in daycare is, the USDA will also check the weight and height of roughly 3,000 children.

“Children will be asked to cooperate with study staff who will weigh and measure them for the Standing Height and Weight Form,” the notice said.

The study is required by section 223 of Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act, which was championed by Mrs. Obama and passed in 2010. The main aspect of the law implemented new standards for school lunches.

A lesser-known requirement of the law is the “Study on Nutrition and Wellness Quality in Childcare Settings (SNAQCS),” which the USDA announced Friday. The public will have 60 days to comment.
