Kate Knibbs of Wired reported today that cuts at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) have decimated the teams that inspect plant and food imports, creating risks from invasive pests and leaving food to rot as it waits for inspection.</p>

'These changes pose real challenges to the charitable food network’s ability to provide nutritious food for people across Maine,' said Heather Paquette, president of Good Shepherd Food Bank. </p><p>"Congresswoman Chellie Pingree, Congressman Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), Congresswoman Alma Adams (D-N.C.) and more than 70 other members of Congress are demanding answers in a letter to Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins. Pingree and her colleagues said that these cuts hurt farmers and strip food away from people and families who need it.</p><p>"'At a time when farmers are facing increased input costs and significant uncertainty due to the indiscriminate funding freeze on certain USDA funds, and when grocery costs have not come down and more families are relying on food banks and school meals, it is reckless and cruel to cancel LFPA and LFS awards to states,' they wrote.</p><p>"Additionally, cuts to the Emergency Food Assistance Program are expected to reduce Good Shepherd Food Bank’s distribution of staple foods by an estimated 250,000 pounds per month starting next month. These reductions come at a time when food insecurity remains high and grocery prices continue to strain household budgets.</p><p>"Maine lawmakers are considering <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LD415" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LD415</span></a>, a bill aimed at expanding investment in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MainersFeedingMainers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MainersFeedingMainers</span></a> program.
