Mike Levin: “As the former chairman of the subcommittee I concur with what Ranking Member Takano said.”

Inspired by her own journey as a single mother, she created The Flora May Foundation which provides parents with free counseling, crisis assistance, and other critical resources.

This blatant weaponization of federal taxpayer dollars to punish states based on their political leanings is wholly inappropriate and in violation of the Fifth Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection of the laws.

USDA must take these findings seriously and act quickly to address the gaps identified by GAO.

I am also concerned that, following staffing cuts in 2025, USDA has failed to fill critical positions that support coordination with the Department of Veterans Affairs on veteran hunger.
