Under the leadership of our late colleague. Chairman Mickey Leland. the committee brought into view for the entire world the staggering dimensions of hunger in Ethiopia and Sudan. Our current chairman. TONY HALL. has expanded this compass to include the pressing needs of refugees. children. and other nations that fight the daily battle of hunger. Both attacked the vexing problem of global hunger. but neither failed to address the scandal of malnutrition in our own Nation. Both chairmen have traveled with me to Indian reservations in North Dakota where they witnessed that tragedy of grinding poverty and severe malnutrition in an affluent nation.
