Many thanks to Rep. Debbie Dingell and staff for meeting with me about Blue Star Families 🇺🇸 priorities for military and veteran families. Thanks for your support for our community, Congresswoman! #BlueStarImpact

I was proud to join Senator Amy Klobuchar to stand against the extreme proposal in Congress that would slash SNAP benefits by $200B. This reckless legislation would force kids to go hungry, increase costs for all Americans, and would hurt our rural communities.
