Last week, Congress bowed to pressure of the food industry and blocked a proposed overhaul of school lunches by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). As Margo Wootan at the Center for Science in the Public Interest said, “It’s a shame that Congress seems more interested in protecting industry than protecting children’s health.”

Well, it wasn’t just Washington, D.C. watching. Kermit the Frog and Seth Meyers took up this issue on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live, in a segment called “Really?!? With Seth and Kermit.”

Check it out:

They got it right:

Kermit: “And really Congress? I mean it’s your job to look out for children, you know.”

Meyers: “But you didn’t. Worst of all, food companies spent over $5 million lobbying against tighter nutritional restrictions. Which means in this case, Congress was nothing more than a puppet to the food industry.”

The industry gives big campaign cash too.

Give us a call, Kermit, we can work together to fix this broken political system.
