if you cant feed and look after children..you can not call your selves civilized, how much food is thrown away by stores, they would rather do this than give it away, profits before children, immoral.

Thank you Mr. Allen-Young for such a well done peice on this essential subject. Mr. Nosakhere has devoted his life to this cause. This bill is just one more step in his fight to END CHILD HUNGER. Why so many children and Mr. Nosakhere must "fight", I will never understand. We have a duty and responsiblility to support this cause, as citizens of the greatest country on earth. It is not acceptable for us to let so many of our children starve. Thank you for highlighting this champion of our children.

Supporting this Bill is securing the 51'000 hungry children to curb malnourishment, to fill it with hope and care . . . this is not just love this is a duty and a extension of our own humanity . . . Do not demonstrate to the world that these Elected officials are the ones that determine the level of our very own humane heart.
