USAID helps farmers... saw 1st hand the impact of the food assistance in emergency situations helped across the globe. Maize & sorghum grown by U.S. farmers bolstering families during times of crisis. This is a tragedy on a massive scale. 2 billion less for farmers, food rotting while others starve.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more.
- US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID
- $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes.
- Food stranded in Houston
- Aid stopped in transit.
The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.
