Pass a strong FARM bill that increases funding for nutrition assistance!
204 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!
As a constituent, I am grateful for the many farmers, growers and farm workers who feed our country and are part of the movement to end hunger. Please support them and people facing hunger by passing a strong 2023 Farm Bill that:
- Includes robust nutrition and agriculture funding.
- Maintains the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA's) funding and authority to support U.S.-grown food through food purchases when the market is disrupted.
- Strengthens The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) to help food banks keep up with the rising need for food assistance and food costs.
- Supports the USDA in balancing the need to be flexible and act swiftly in making food purchases with the need for stakeholder engagement, particularly in the face of rapidly changing agricultural markets.
Thanks!
