Statement Attributed to Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, CEO, Feeding America
The upcoming elections will bring leadership changes, but it will not change the uniting truth that everyone deserves the food they need to thrive. Hunger transcends political parties. Feeding America’s position continues to be simple and consistent: We stand firmly alongside people facing hunger. We are committed to working with all elected and appointed officials to advance policies and programs that support the tens of millions of people experiencing food insecurity in every community in the U.S.
