The “Americans Can Help Each Other” (ACHE) Act

​

Right now, 90% of the profits from our massive grocery chains are shipped off to wealthy shareholders while 1 in 7 American households struggles to put food on the table. The ACHE Act takes $32.9 billion of those corporate profits and puts them into a “Mutual Aid Network”—a system designed so that we can finally take care of our own.

The Community Roadmap

How We Help Each Other

 

Healing “Food Deserts” $15 Billion to build 1,000 neighborhood-owned grocery stores and “Mobile Markets” that bring fresh food directly to your porch. cityporch.city-

 

Grown Success $8 Billion to turn vacant lots into urban farms and 24/7 community fridges, creating “zero-mile” food for our biggest cities.

 

Small Town Resilience $6 Billion to build “Food Commons” that connect local farmers directly to schools and hospitals, plus free seeds for your own “Victory Garden.”

 

Rural Retention $3.9 Billion to pay our farmers the full retail price for their crops, keeping that high-quality food in the counties where it was grown.

​

Phase One: Reaching the “Forgotten” Neighborhoods

​

We are ending the era of driving 20 miles for a gallon of milk.

​

• Neighbor-Owned Stores: We’re seeding 1,000 grocery co-ops owned by the residents, not CEOs.

• Pantry to Porch: We will pay local residents a living wage to deliver fresh groceries to their senior neighbors and those with disabilities.

 

Phase Two: The Urban Harvest

In our crowded cities, we’re making food free and accessible.

​

• Community Kitchens: We’re building 500 massive kitchens where families can cook together, learn to preserve food, and share bulk ingredients.

• The Public Fridge: Installing thousands of temperature-controlled kiosks that stay stocked 24/7—no questions asked, just neighbors helping neighbors.

 

Phase Three: Bridging the Gap

Connecting the countryside to the dinner table.

​

• Food Commons: Regional hubs where local farmers can clean and package their goods to be sent straight to local school cafeterias and grocery hubs.

• The Victory Garden Initiative: Every American household will have access to free organic seeds and tools to grow their own food at home.

 

Phase Four: Strengthening the Heartland

Our farmers grow the world’s food, yet their own towns often lack fresh options.

​

• Direct-to-Farmer Support: We pay rural farmers the full “store price” for their crops and distribute them for free within their own community.

• Small Shop Grants: Helping the last remaining “Mom and Pop” general stores stay open with solar-powered cooling and fresh inventory.
