Team,
This week, Pat stood with local farmers at Crist Brothers Orchards in Walden to shine a spotlight on what Trump’s reckless economic agenda is doing to the Hudson Valley.

The reality is devastating. Trump’s new tariffs could cost this one family-run orchard $60,000 this year alone. At the same time, his administration has slashed food bank funding, meaning fewer local purchases from farms and fewer meals for families in need.
It’s yet another hit from Trump’s Big Ugly Betrayal, a massive tax giveaway to the ultra-rich that comes at the direct expense of working families, farmers, and food security in communities like ours.
Pat made his message on this clear: “Let's restore all that food bank funding nationally so we can feed people and support our local farms.”
We agree — and we need your voice behind this fight.
Add your name to stand with Hudson Valley farmers and demand full restoration of food bank funding.
The Hudson Valley has always fed New York. It’s time Washington stopped making that harder.
