“improv[e] health outcomes by prioritizing nutrition, providing access to affordable, nutrient-dense foods, and focusing on primary care availability to tackle the root causes of chronic diseases.” All very laudable goals. I don't think deportation of the field workers will help improve our eating habits, however. But, this is more cynical. First damage the climate and reduce the quality of the foods we grow, then blame the eaters as useless.
