    How would tax credits for small grocers in low-competition areas affect food prices for consumers in rural versus urban neighborhoods?

  2. 02

    What evidence shows that reducing operating costs through tax credits actually leads to lower prices rather than increased profit margins for retailers?

  3. 03

    Who would bear the cost of foregone federal tax revenue, and could those funds be used differently to address food affordability?
