Rosa DeLauro and Brian Greene Hope for Future Policies that Reach the Most Vulnerable
The families with the most financial need are excluded from policies that provide support.
Our guests:
Rosa and Brian discuss how the system is set up today in a way that doesn't allow support to reach those who need it most. Rosa thinks that public needs to rally around policies that support Americans in need, especially since the expanded Child Tax Credit in the American Rescue Act had clear and immediate results that matched its vision.
Brian talks through some logistics of how the Houston Food Bank feeds 1 million people per year, but he also shares his thoughts on how to truly address the issue of food insecurity in the United States.
“Food insecurity isn't about food. Food insecurity is about income.”
For more detailed show notes and a full transcript, see the Podcast page on the Invisible Americans website.
