💨 Abstract

Food banks in seven states, already struggling with demand, expect reduced food supplies due to $1 billion in federal funding cuts and program pauses by the Trump administration, according to Reuters interviews. The cuts affect USDA programs that help schools and food banks buy local farm produce. This is expected to decrease food distribution, particularly produce, meat, and staples. The USDA has not clarified why food banks are seeing reduced deliveries.
