I heard about this new bill, and I think it's called the EATS Act of 2025. It's supposed to do something with food and agriculture, but I'm not exactly sure what it all entails. It's sad that I don't have all the details, but I hope it's something that will benefit our country. Can't wait to learn more about it!
