WASHINGTON \u2013 The ONE Campaign applauds the introduction of the Global Food Security Act of 2013 (H.R. 2822) by Reps. Betty McCollum (D-MN), Aaron Schock (R-IL) and James McGovern (D-MA).<\/p>\n

Tom Hart, U.S. Executive Director of ONE, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thank Reps. McCollum, McGovern and Schock for their leadership in the fight against global hunger. This bipartisan bill builds on the U.S. government\u2019s strategy to tackle the root causes of food insecurity and rural poverty. We recognize the impact agricultural development has already had on the ground by lifting farmers out of poverty and helping them grow and sell more food.<\/p>\n

By establishing a long-term and comprehensive strategy for assistance to developing countries, this bill will lead to increases in sustainable agricultural development, reductions in global hunger, improved nutrition and, ultimately, food security.<\/p>\n

We look forward to continuing to work with members of Congress and the Administration to support this bill so we can finally tackle hunger and malnutrition around the world.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
