The $169.8M USAID grant to WFP for Somalia exemplifies why H.R. 1196's protections matter - emergency food assistance can't exist without stable funding streams. But let's be clear: while feeding 6.9M food-insecure Somalis is critical, the real issue is systemic aid bloat.

The same FY24 appropriation could've been XX% more effective by cutting middlemen like World Vision's $832M Deloitte consulting contract (DOD FY2025) or NSF's $347M Booz Allen deal. Emergency aid's necessary, but permanent bureaucracies aren't.

Audit data shows XX% of FY24 nutrition funds get lost to "administrative costs" - that's $20M vanishing before reaching starving families. Redirect that cash to vetted local partners, not Beltway contractors.
