Washington Post: “More Americans are going hungry now than at any point during the deadly coronavirus pandemic, according to a Post analysis of new federal data … Experts say it is likely that there’s more hunger in the United States today than at any point since 1998, when the Census Bureau began collecting comparable data about households’ ability to get enough food.”

“One in 8 Americans reported they sometimes or often didn’t have enough food to eat in the past week, hitting nearly 26 million American adults.”
