CWN Editor's Note: Echoing comments made in an April letter to leaders of the House and Senate agriculture committees, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has called on the faithful to urge members of Congress to “ensure protection and funding of key food security programs in the 2023 Farm Bill.”
