Delays in the family immigration system can leave many with no choice but to try to come to the U.S. through other avenues, like arriving at the border. President Donald J. Trump can address this by: ✅Recapturing unused visas ✅Providing parole to people stuck in the backlogs #HeartsAtHome #SOTU

Thank you Rep Congresswoman Chellie Pingree 🇺🇸🇺🇦 Policy Advisor Chelsea Zissman, herself a 4-Her, for hosting our group of teens attending #igniteby4h conference. We learned about Rep. Pingree's work on the Farm Bill and bills like the Local Farms and Food Act and the Agriculture Resilience Act.
