Cory Booker is from New Jersey, but he has family in Iowa and he has studied issues in rural America hard, even traveling across the midwest and visiting farms to learn more. He recognizes that the farmers' share of the food dollar has gone down and that farm income is 50% of what it was a few years ago. He has lived in a food desert and understands the importance of local foods and a healthy lifestyle. He is a vegetarian... In this speech, he talked about all the health problems caused by toxic chemicals and praises the medicare-for-all movement and environmental justice. Also talked about climate change but admitted that Democrats don't have clean hands on that subject either.
