Did you know about the HUGE new victory for plant-based milks? Find out from Olympian Dotsie Bausch!
On this episode of UNCHAINEDTV’s Truth Files, host Jane Velez-Mitchell sits down with an athlete who knows what it means to race against impossible odds—and win. Olympic medal winner, 7-time U.S. national champion and Switch4Good Founder and Executive Director Dotsie Bausch is no stranger to grit, discipline, and courage. Today, this famed cyclist is on most important race of her life and it isn’t happening on a track. It’s happening in our public schools, where millions of children and parents have long been denied a simple, fundamental choice.
For decades, students who could not—or did not want to—consume dairy milk faced unnecessary barriers, often requiring a doctor’s note just to access a healthy plant-based alternative. That’s finally changing, thanks in large part to Dotsie’s relentless advocacy. Recently, she helped lead the charge to pass a groundbreaking new national law that allows students to choose plant-based milks with just a parent’s note. No medical hoops. No stigma. Just choice.
But for Dotsie, passing the law was only the starting line.
Now, she’s taking this victory on the road with Switch4Good’s Justice Tour, a bold, nationwide campaign to make sure families know this new option exists—and feel empowered to use it. Because policy change means little if the people it’s designed to serve aren’t aware of their rights. The Justice Tour is about education, access, and fairness, bringing the truth about plant-based nutrition, health equity, and informed choice directly to parents, students, and educators across the country.
Jane and Dotsie dig deep into why this issue matters so profoundly. This isn’t just about milk—it’s about bodily autonomy, inclusion, and leveling the playing field for kids of all backgrounds, cultures, and dietary needs. It’s about addressing lactose intolerance disparities, reducing environmental impact, and giving children the tools to make compassionate, informed decisions that align with their values.
