Today, President Trump will visit Flavor 1st Growers and Packers, who earlier this year “partnered with Baptists on Mission to help fulfill the mission of Farmers to Families, a $3 billion U.S. Department of Agriculture program that buys food from farmers that would otherwise go uneaten,” Mackensy Lunsford reports in the Asheville Citizen-Times.
“As the economy recovers, it is essential that low-income workers can resume the great trajectory of opportunity they were on before the pandemic hit.

Unions fear that they’ll look bad if private schools open successfully while keeping Covid-19 contained. The decent approach should be to wish them success,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes.
