| Lanon Baccam supports efforts to help families when needed and expand child nutrition programs. | Food for Working Families: About 11 percent of people in this community struggle with being able to regularly access quality food for their families. | Zach Nunn tried to block the American Rescue Plan, even though it expanded benefits that help feed working families and expanded school nutrition programs. |
| Lanon Baccam can be counted on to protect and support expansion of the Affordable Care Act and other reforms that make healthcare more affordable. | Making Health Care Affordable: There are still too many people without health insurance in our community.
