You'll be Glad to Know

... that although the Federal budget has been cut to the bone - the bone I tell you - we still have the National Mango Board with us. That's right, folks, we can rest easy:

"Thanks to a fee collected from mango importers by Homeland Security’s Customs and Border Protection, the National Mango Board has an annual budget of $6.7 million ..." 

Phew! Our mangoes are safe - Trump didn't get them. 

The job of this august group of Protectors of the Mango? Why to increase awareness and consumption of mangoes in America! I have just done the first part; now it's up to you my friends to Save the Mangoes! Go thee forth and buy, buy these delicious tropical fruits and wolf them down with abandon - fresh mangoes,mango pie, mango bread, mango fritters, mango jam - the possibilities are endless. Democracy has been saved yet again and all for only $6.7M! We owe an immense debt of gratitude to Congress for this one.
