Notes
Recites that food banks 'have reported a surge in need', that 'global food supply chains are also experiencing shortages, and certain shelf-stable foods, fresh produce, and other basic necessities are becoming more difficult to obtain', and that 'mass transit agencies have reduced their' service since the stay-home order. Facts-and-circumstances value for the supply-chain Part.
