@SenTinaSmith @allison_otoole @2harvest Love to see two amazing women leaders I respect so much hanging out and working on such important issues - thank you for your leadership!

Nobody in America should go hungry, and nutrition is at the top of my mind as we negotiate the Farm Bill.   I brought @Allison_OToole from @2Harvest to the State of the Union to uplift their incredible work and to see how the President is delivering for working families.
