In today’s podcast, we delve into food security — and insecurity — with Del. Stacey Plaskett, D-V.I., who sits on the House Agriculture Committee. She talks about what Congress is doing to stave off rising levels of hunger in the U.S. We follow up with a report from CQ Roll Call’s Rachel Oswald on what the world expects from the U.S. during this pandemic — what could be the worst humanitarian disaster in a century.
