The reason you can eat a bagged salad without thinking about it is that somebody inspected the plant. That inspection is a person with a job, and those jobs have been cut, frozen, and left unfilled, while the outbreak investigators who trace a contaminated lot back to its source were pushed out alongside them. The result isn't a debate — it's recalls that arrive after people are already in the hospital, and families who learn from a news alert that what's in their refrigerator killed someone. Food safety is the least ideological thing government does; it works so quietly that nobody notices it until it stops. Resistbot is asking the candidates on your 2026 ballot to fully staff and fund FDA and USDA inspection, protect the independence of outbreak investigators, and make every inspection lapse public instead of quietly absorbing the risk on your behalf.
