Bush in Food Aid Fight with Congress (Politico)

February 11, 2008

The Politico quotes CGD senior fellow Kimberly Ann Elliott on U.S. food aid to developing countries.

From the article:

"It has been almost impossible to circumvent the 'iron triangle' of the shippers, growers and private development organizations that depend on those funds, said Kimberly Ann Elliott, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Development. 'We are already short of where we need to be, and this only makes it worse.'"
