My heart goes out to the two Guardsman who were shot yesterday and their families. I’m hopeful that they recover. Their sacrifice in the line of duty will not be forgotten

I'm astounded that the feds are balking at paying for food for hungry families, elders, and kids. I'm grateful to the AG's who are fighting in court to free up this money. I hope the appeals court acts ASAP. This is not complicated. Use the money you already have and follow the law: FEED THE PEOPLE!
