In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“Millions who are eligible for WIC do not access the program. My legislation, the WIC for Kids Act would help to remove unnecessary barriers, connect more recipients to WIC, and provide the necessary nutrition for early development.”

“The American people are demanding more transparency in government, yet this Administration continues to block information or provide sufficient details on its actions.
