Mike Conaway: “Food aid continues to matter. In the long-term, it helps generate good will in other countries.”

The Farmers to Families Food Box Program (FFFBP) was the victim of a rushed process that included no engagement with current distributors and nonprofits and resulted in cherry-picked contractors who were not qualified.

The contract Borden was awarded through the Farmers to Families Food Box Program enabled us to preserve employment and benefits for our people.

We urge Congress to continue to provide people the means to access healthy food.

I am all for that, but just to have an open-ended check I don't think is necessarily a good idea.
