Jim McGovern: “We have 40 million people in this country who are hungry.”

“I've worked on hunger, nutrition and farming issues for a long time. This farm bill, in my view, is a disaster. It is an awful, ugly, rotten farm bill. We have 40 million people in this country who are hungry. 40 million people struggling to afford food. And by the way, it's getting worse because of Trump's stupid tariffs and illegal war in Iran that are driving up food costs.” (03:06–03:11)
