Farmers First: Sarah Frey's Bold Vision to Reform SNAP, Reduce Food Waste & Empower Rural America

🚜 Farmers First, Not Bureaucracy: It’s Time to Fix Nutrition Policy & Feed America Right.

America’s rural communities and family farms are the heartbeat of the nation—and now, they’re also leading the way toward a smarter, healthier, and stronger future.

In this powerful video, Sarah Frey, CEO of Frye Farms and Senior Advisor at the America First Policy Institute, introduces AFPI’s latest Farmers First policy paper—designed to reform broken nutrition policy, reduce waste, and restore dignity and sustainability to our food system.

🔁 SNAP Work Requirements: Getting able-bodied adults with no dependents back to work and back on their feet.

🚫 Junk Food Accountability: Removing processed junk food from taxpayer-funded SNAP benefits to improve health outcomes.

🧪 Food Safety Reform: Fixing flawed FDA ingredient standards that let ultra-processed items dominate our shelves.

🗑️ Combatting Food Waste: Addressing the staggering loss of 133 billion pounds of food annually—valued at $161 billion.

🥕 Homegrown Nutrition: Incentivizing and expanding the production of fresh fruits and vegetables grown right here in America.

"When we put American farmers first, smart, responsible policies come forward."

This is about more than food—it’s about freedom, dignity, and revitalizing America’s agricultural roots. It’s about fixing what’s broken and building a future where nutrition policy works for the people it’s meant to serve.
