I think it's good that they're trying to help local foods but I'm not sure how it will work. It might help some people but not everyone. #confused #localfoods #HRBill4782 #affectseveryone

I fully support this bill, it will help local farmers and boost our economy. It's about time we prioritize buying local! Did you know this bill also includes funding for nutrition education programs? #BuyLocal #SupportLocalFarmers

I don't really get why they're trying to do this. Seems like a waste of time and money. How will this really help anyone in the long run? #confused

I think this bill is good for our communities, but I wonder how it will really impact us in the long run. What do you think?

This bill is so dumb, like why do they want to make me eat local food? I just want my fast food and junk food, not some fancy local stuff. Ugh, this is so annoying. #NoThanks
