Every year, the White House hosts a picnic for members of Congress. The food is lavish and paid for by you and me. This year, the main course was to be 2-inch-thick ribeye steaks. Looking at photos of the ribeye steaks is enough to make your mouth water, however, this year, those steaks will not be eaten by members of Congress.

I applaud Trump for cancelling the picnic and giving the food to those who more deserve it.
