Do Your Part to Help Congress Pass a Farm Bill

I am posting this message courtesy of Shelly Scott, RD of America’s Second Harvest.

Both the House and Senate are expected to vote on the Bill this week. Unlike
many issues on Capital Hill, both Republicans and Democrats are supporting
this Bill. But this bipartisan support may not be enough?.The President said
last week that he will veto the Farm Bill. To override his expected veto, we
need to secure a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate. At this
point, it looks encouraging that the Senate will have the two-thirds
majority, but the House is much less clear. This is where your help is so
critical. I urge you to contact your Senators and Representatives. One way
to do this is through the Hunger Action Center at www.hungeractioncenter.org/alertdetail.aspx?AlertID=86
