     &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Universal School Meals Program Act of 2021&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill revises requirements under the food and nutrition programs of the Department of Agriculture, such as the school lunch and breakfast programs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For example, the bill permanently provides free meals to all school children regardless of income.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill increases the reimbursement rate for school food authorities participating in the food and nutrition programs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill also prohibits school food authorities from (1) physically segregating or otherwise discriminating against any child participating in the free breakfast program, or (2) overtly identifying a child participating in the program with a special token or announcement. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Additionally, the bill expands the summer food service program by making all children eligible for participation in the program.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Further, the bill revises eligibility determinations for measuring poverty to include runaway or homeless youth, foster children, migratory children, and children participating in specified programs (e.g., Head Start).&lt;/p&gt;
