The Safe School Meals Act of 2024 amends federal school meal programs to establish safety standards for contaminants in foods served to students. It requires the EPA to reduce pesticide residues to nondetectable levels within five years, directs the FDA to set maximum permissible levels for heavy metals and toxic metalloids in school meals and ban certain chemicals from food packaging, and mandates reassessment of food additives and colorants for safety. The bill also authorizes funding increases to schools to cover compliance costs and directs the Department of Agriculture to research soil and water remediation methods and establish a certification program for clean food suppliers.
