We want to look at everything we can do that's right and proper under federal law, and with federal laws to see that the children of America are given a chance to grow as strong, constructive, healthy human beings. It's the best investment we can possibly make in America.

Industrial agriculture freed many people to pursue lives their parents and grandparents could never have. It made America modern.

We'd rather pay farmers millions of dollars not to grow crops than to feed children.

The whole American experiment has been predicated on giving individuals as much control over their own lives as possible.

We need a grassroots movement and government policies and programs to change the food landscape and the built environment to give our children a chance to have happy, healthy successful lives.

The issue I have always felt most strongly about is hunger in America, in particular the children.

After all, despite the economic advantage to firms that employed child labor, it was in the social interest, as a national policy, to abolish it - removing that advantage for all firms.

America - a great social and economic experiment, noble in motive and far-reaching in purpose.

Generosity has built America. When we fail to invest in children, we have to pay the cost.

I'm trying to encourage my children's generation and the other ones coming to return to basic American principles.
