House Ag has paved the way for the LARGEST cuts to SNAP ever! MORE people will be hungry, kids will struggle in school, communities will feel economic hardship, & our nation will move backwards in our fight against poverty and hunger. We need your voice! #SNAPMatters

📢 #SNAP is facing the LARGEST CUTS IN HISTORY. Changes working through Congress NOW would devastate families already struggling, especially if combined w/ cuts to #Medicaid & other important programs. Cuts and changes are unacceptable! #SNAPMatters bit.ly/snap-matters

The Senate is Considering Food Assistance Cuts to Millions of Families, and legislation implementing severe cuts and changes to SNAP could be introduced in the Senate THIS WEEK! Government spending cuts CANNOT be shouldered by people trying to get food on the table. #SNAPMatters!

"Because most states must balance their budgets and cannot accrue debt to offset new spending like the federal government can, shifting SNAP spending to states risks drawing down resources from other public programs like Medicaid, said Eric Mitchell" reuters.com/world/us/state…

The Senate Agriculture Committee has released its budget reconciliation text. The legislation would cut SNAP by a historic amount and inches us closer to higher hunger and undernutrition. “this utterly fails the ‘do no harm’ test and must be rejected.” alliancetoendhunger.org/senate-agricul…

Senators continue to seek a way to fundamentally alter SNAP that would assist fewer hungry people and families & cut benefits essential to help make ends meet.📢 The Senate bill could be finalized and voted on as soon as Wednesday. Remind Senators that #SNAPMatters!
