The GOP sham plan to keep the government open includes massive cuts to programs hungry people rely on. I can’t think of a more rotten thing to do! We must reject cuts and fund President Donald J. Trump’ $1.4 billion supplemental WIC request. America's most vulnerable are counting on us.

It wasn’t enough for House Rs to add older adults to #SNAP’s harmful work-reporting requirements in the #DebtCeiling agreement -- they’re back at it w/ 3 proposed amendments to the Ag Approps bill coming this week that would take food away from more than 1M ppl w/ low-incomes.

"When we make cuts - in SNAP, for example - it doesn't just hurt low-income folks," said Wilson. "It hurts the entire food system, where we're losing additional revenue - for grocery stores, for farmers' markets, for farmers, for producers." publicnewsservice.org/2024-01-02/hun…
