…and by law, all baby food must now be made with deadly poison. – John Hodgman

Several national media outlets nearly as credible as the Daily Show have also been decrying the rule change.

Raised on the banks of the Tennessee River, JW's work to create progress in his home state and throughout Appalachia has been featured on the Rachel Maddow Show, The Daily Kos and Grist. He served first as Appalachian Voices’ Legislative Associate and then Tennessee director until leaving to pursue a career in medicine in 2012.
