AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Another program for “We the People”, that will Sunset without the renewal of waivers. Congress must act to renew the “Free school Meal Programs”, that have been guaranteed. Why they’re not permanent, amazes me! They should be permanent. Free meals at schools all year round prevents 10 million kids from being hungry. Everyone is entitled to learn and to learn with a full stomach, no embarrassment. The old system of shame, never worked. Dare we hope Congress will act responsibly on the Food Waiver program and renew it?!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Day 102 of Putin’s War, $2 +Trillion spent by Russia. Ukrainians mounting fierce counter offensive in the East. Eastern Ukrainians reject Russia as their mother tongue. Kyiv shelled by Russia and Zelenskiy waiting for new weapons to mount more effective counter attacks! Ukrainians also looking for prisoner swaps. Let’s support Zelenskiy and encourage him in his success retaking territory. Only a broad offensive will enable Zelenskiy to find a way forward with negotiations.

It appears Putin wants Ukraine and not the Ukrainian people. Odessa being reassessed for use to prevent world hunger! No peace talks without Russian withdrawal. The War continues.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Food Banks have become a necessity abroad and here. Their expansion has grown with inflationary pricing. Societies institutions are broken. “We the People “ need a #BasicLivingWage” $10,000 for everyone making $75,000 or less and 18 yrs or older. In America, the founding fathers envisioned, free education at 18 and a funded pension plan . Ideas whose time has come! #Politics Affects US!
