Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Vani Hari, food activist and a MAHA Leader working with HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy, Jr. The conversation highlights Vani Hari's important work as a MAHA leader in the efforts to create clean food ingredients and remove artificial foods dyes harming Americans, and especially children.
On the eve of the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second administration, Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-hosts of America's Roundtable were invited by The White House Media Affairs Team for an exclusive Madia Row event in Washington, D.C. 
Also known as the "Food Babe," Vani Hari has spent over a decade sounding the alarm on the concerns of deceptive practices which are occurring in the food industry.
According to the White House, some 30 million estimated number of American children were adversely affected with health conditions in 2022 and 3.4 million children are on ADHD medication. 
Further details from Vani Hari:
✔️ 1 in every 13 children have food allergies in the U.S. - which is about 2 children per classroom.
✔️ Food allergies in children increased approximately 50% between 1997 and 2011.
✔️ Every 3 minutes, a food allergy reaction sends someone to the emergency room.
✔️ New cancer cases in the U.S. increased by 36.3% between 2000 and 2021.
According to critics of large food companies, there is an interesting correlation between the changes brought to the kitchen table and throughout fast food locations and restaurants with certain food ingredients (which are banned in Europe and other places around the world) and the cost of healthcare in America.
The Peterson Center on Healthcare established by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation states: "Health spending totaled $74.1 billion in 1970. By 2000, health expenditures had reached about $1.4 trillion, and in 2023 the amount spent on health more than tripled to $4.9 trillion."

<p>Join <a href="https://americasrt.com/" rel="nofollow">America&#39;s Roundtable</a> radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Vani Hari, food activist and a MAHA Leader working with HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy, Jr. The conversation highlights Vani Hari&#39;s important work as a MAHA leader in the efforts to create clean food ingredients and remove artificial foods dyes harming Americans, and especially children.</p>

<p>On the eve of the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second administration, Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-hosts of America&#39;s Roundtable were invited by The White House Media Affairs Team for an exclusive Madia Row event in Washington, D.C. </p>

<p>Also known as the &quot;Food Babe,&quot; Vani Hari has spent over a decade sounding the alarm on the concerns of deceptive practices which are occurring in the food industry.</p>

<p>According to the White House, some 30 million estimated number of American children were adversely affected with health conditions in 2022 and 3.4 million children are on ADHD medication. </p>

<p>Further details from Vani Hari:</p>

<p>✔️ 1 in every 13 children have food allergies in the U.S. - which is about 2 children per classroom.</p>

<p>✔️ Food allergies in children increased approximately 50% between 1997 and 2011.</p>

<p>✔️ Every 3 minutes, a food allergy reaction sends someone to the emergency room.</p>

<p>✔️ New cancer cases in the U.S. increased by 36.3% between 2000 and 2021.</p>

<p>According to critics of large food companies, there is an interesting correlation between the changes brought to the kitchen table and throughout fast food locations and restaurants with certain food ingredients (which are banned in Europe and other places around the world) and the cost of healthcare in America.</p>

<p>The Peterson Center on Healthcare established by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation states: &quot;Health spending totaled $74.1 billion in 1970. By 2000, health expenditures had reached about $1.4 trillion, and in 2023 the amount spent on health more than tripled to $4.9 trillion.&quot;</p>

  <description>Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn, senior senator for Tennessee and the first woman to represent the Volunteer State in the United States Senate. She serves on the Deputy Whip Team and is a member of the Finance Committee; the Commerce, Science &amp;amp; Transportation Committee; the Veterans’ Affairs Committee; and the Judiciary Committee. 
Senator Marsha Blackburn serves as the Ranking Member on the Commerce Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, and Data Security and on the Judiciary Subcommittee on Human Rights and the Law. Before her election to the Senate, Marsha represented Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives.
The conversation focuses on the following topics:
✅ President Trump's State of the Union Address, presenting his vision for a Golden Age of America.
✅ Senator Blackburn requiring transparency and accountability, working with FBI Director Kash Patel in obtaining unredacted Epstein logs and other pertinent materials
✅ Senator Blackburn spearheading DOGE Acts to hold the federal government accountable for managing taxpayer dollars. Collaborative efforts with Elon Mask in making the federal government more efficient and slash wasteful spending.
✅ Strengthening the economic partnership between the U.S. and Taiwan.
✅ Senator Blackburn's recently introduced Tax Administration Simplification Act, to provide straightforward, taxpayer-focused improvements to streamline tax filing and payment for individuals and small businesses.
✅  Strengthening US-Israel ties and combating anti-Semitism with new leadership in Congress and the White House. 
✅ Making America Healthy Again | Healthy foods and eating habits for a healthier America. 
Throughout her time in Congress, Marsha has led the fight to hold Communist China accountable. Her in-depth analyses of the Chinese Communist Party’s threats to American sovereignty have prompted Congress to examine legislation countering Beijing’s malign influence on global supply chains, technology infrastructure, and international organizations. 
After Beijing took over the once autonomous region of Hong Kong in 2019, Marsha led bipartisan legislation, which was signed into law by President Trump, that prohibits the U.S. export of crowd control equipment to the Hong Kong Police Force. Her bipartisan Open Technology Fund Authorization Act, which supports internet freedom by addressing authoritarian regimes’ efforts to censor the internet, was also signed into law. 
At the same time Marsha has stood up to Communist China, she has worked to bolster the U.S.-Taiwan relationship. In August 2022, she visited Taiwan, met with President Tsai Ing-wen in Taipei, and called to strengthen connections between the U.S. and Taiwan. During this visit, Marsha made her stance clear: Taiwan is a country.
On border policy, Marsha bases her approach on the simple truth that until our borders are secure, every town will be a border town and every state will be a border state. In the Senate, she has led the charge to fully fund the United States Border Patrol, restart construction of a physical barrier, impose harsher criminal penalties for drug smuggling, and fight for law and order on behalf of the thousands of women and girls lost to cross-border human trafficking.
