- WIC is one of the most evidence-based public health programs available, driving better health outcomes and playing a critical role in supporting millions of moms, children, and babies so that they can thrive.
- On the best day, I want to extend warm wishes to @taylorswift13, who happens to share a birthday with me. I also want to acknowledge her philanthropic efforts during her Eras tour, where she graciously donated to local food banks supporting food insecure families nationwide. I hope Taylor’s generous efforts might inspire Congress to put aside their bad blood and come together to fully fund WIC to ensure we can continue access to nutritious food for mothers, children, and infants.
