Food and Travel Nation – USDA RELEASES THE FOOD INSECURITY REPORT – IT’S WORSE THAN YOU THINK
with Elizabeth Dougherty
The TRUTH about Food and Travel
Broadcast Date: 10/30/2023
USDA Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack released the results of the 2022 Food Insecurity Report last week, saying “They paint a picture of just how many Americans faced the heartbreaking challenge last year of struggling to meet a basic need for themselves and their children.”
In 2022, 17 million Americans experienced significant hunger in 2022, a million more than in 2021. With the curtailment of SNAP benefits early in 2023, next year’s report will be significantly worse.
So what did Mr. Vilsack actually DO to combat hunger here in the United States? Vilsack “reallocated” over 2 BILLION dollars to promote American agricultural interests in overseas markets.
