| Summary: | Millions are on the verge of starvation as humanitarian crises in Africa — from northern Uganda to Nigeria — intensify. In this environment of growing despair, the Food for Peace Reform Act, a new bill being introduced by Bob Corker and Christopher Coons of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, rekindles hope for much-needed reforms in U.S. emergency food aid programs. If the bill passes, it would enable U.S. emergency aid programs to feed an additional 8 million to 10 million people, without additional cost to taxpayers.
