🥗 Andrew Zimmern speaks the truth.
#agsky #econsky
Not from #hungerpc25 but absolutely relevant.
Listen to Andrew Zimmern & @chefjoseandres.bsky.social.

It’s more important than ever that we give dignity to the people who are keeping America and the world fed…building longer tables instead of demonizing others.

🥗 defining work to include unpaid caregiving would be huge. And correct.

🥗 Key insight from David Wieland from Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon:
CEP improves behavior and reduces conflict, not because kids who are fed are less likely to act out, but because it avoids classifying kids into different groups: haves and have-nots.

🥗 Lawrence Cox tells us about his experience with prison release. Unable to get CALFresh because he didn’t know where his identification documents were. Finally found his birth certificate at his grandmother’s house 2 weeks later. 2 weeks of real food insecurity.
#hungerpc25 @fracposts.bsky.social
🥗 In CA, when you are released from prison, if your family gets CALFresh, it was *illegal* for you to have dinner with your family. Until January 2025 when legislation passed to change this.
May 4, 2025 at 7:08 PM
🥗 Jessica Pino-Goodspeed from Hunger Solutions NY:
CEP allows schools to pay cafeteria staff more, and to improve quality of meals for everyone. “It’s a no-brainer.”
#hungerpc25
It’s a win win win win win.

We will see a severe hunger crisis in America, well beyond what we’ve seen up to now.

There is no backstop.
