We, the members of the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), are writing to express our concern about the growing problem of food insecurity in the United States.

We believe that access to adequate and healthy food is essential for promoting longevity and improving health outcomes. Unfortunately, food insecurity remains a significant problem for many individuals and communities, particularly those facing economic challenges.

Studies have shown that food insecurity can have a significant impact on health outcomes, including increasing the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. These conditions are major contributors to premature death and reduced quality of life. By addressing food insecurity, we can improve the health and longevity of all Americans, especially those who are most vulnerable.

At the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), we are committed to advancing legislation and policies that aim to increase healthy human lifespan, with a focus on accelerating equitable access to next-generation therapies. We believe that fixing food insecurity is a crucial step in achieving this goal.

Promoting longevity is not just a personal goal, but also a societal one. By living longer and healthier lives, we can contribute more to our families, communities, and the economy. We urge the USDA to take action to address food insecurity and promote longevity for all Americans.
