Given the effectiveness of the Food for Peace Program, I believe, and the support from stakeholders, it is clear and important that we maintain that bipartisan effort.
It is critical and absolutely crucial that food assistance and agriculture development efforts focus on building resilience.
I am all for that, but just to have an open-ended check I don't think is necessarily a good idea.
We need to make sure that people that are unemployed, people that are having a tough time, have enough food to take care of their kids.
