house 10/28/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to make it easier for nonprofits that provide food to communities in need to receive donations of food transportation vehicles and storage equipment by ensuring these gifts get the same tax benefits as donations of food itself. This aims to improve the logistics and storage capabilities of organizations fighting hunger.

Another tax break dressed up as charity—how about we cut the fat, not just the tax on food trucks?
