Dear friend,

[ [link removed] ]Will you join us in calling on U.S. leaders to help alleviate world
hunger?

Just yesterday, the U.N. issued a new report showing that the global food
crisis is spiraling out of control in hunger hotspots, where people are
grappling with conflict, climate change, inflation, and shortages. Up to
783 million people experienced hunger in 2022, an increase of 122 million
compared to 2019.

As the Farm Bill moves through Congress, we must ensure our leaders take
action to ensure timely, effective food assistance to communities that
need it most. [ [link removed] ]Sign the petition now.

Violent conflict, the long-term impacts of the pandemic, and the climate
crisis have triggered a global food crisis. The war in Ukraine has upended
global agricultural markets, further exacerbating the crisis by sending
the costs of food, fuel, and fertilizer skyrocketing.

In our global work, we’re seeing firsthand how the hunger crisis impacts
families struggling to put food on the table. We must take action now. Our
leaders have the opportunity to amend the Farm Bill to eliminate barriers
to food aid delivery.

closer to ending hunger around the world ▸

Thank you for helping to build a future where everyone can thrive.

Thank you,

The Mercy Corps team
