crisis in this country with millions of people going to bed hungry and trying to survive on Ramen noodles. Many of these people work but their wages only cover the cost of rent. For millions of children, the only food they get is what they receive in school. That is a total disgrace in a country that worships at the feet of millionaires and billionaires. It is also unconscionable in a country that claims to be Christian and tries to force that religion down everyone's throats. And now our Congress, a body that is elected to stand up for our citizens, wants to pass measures to cut off the only source of food for millions of those people.
