The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is suing the federal government over cuts to crucial food bank programs.

Governor Josh Shapiro filed the lawsuit Wednesday morning, explaining that the cuts would be devastating, not just to residents, but to local farmers.

"It's certainly not always easy work," said Kirstie Jones, who is head farmer at Pennypack Farm and Education Center in Horsham.
