伊利诺伊州州长 J.B. Pritzker 宣布了一项由美国农业部资助的 2880 万美元全州拨款计划,旨在解决粮食不安全问题并帮助历来代表性不足的农民。 Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker announced a $28.8 million state-wide grant program, funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, to address food insecurity and assist historically under-represented farmers. 该倡议的工作原理是,在学校、教堂和其他非营利组织的参与下,直接以公平市场价格从社会弱势农民手中购买粮食,并将其免费分发给有需要的社区。 The initiative works by purchasing food at fair market value directly from socially disadvantaged farmers and distributing it to communities in need at no cost, with participation from schools, churches, and other nonprofit organizations. 中西部食品银行的皮奥里亚和诺默尔部门将通过当地食品采购援助合作协议获得约 500 万美元。 The Midwest Food Bank's Peoria and Normal divisions will receive approximately $5 million through the Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement.
