🍽 SNAP funding cuts in the House budget reconciliation bill would mean fewer of our neighbors can access the nutritious food we all need to thrive. We ask #Hoosier lawmakers to protect funding for essential programs like SNAP & Medicaid. 🚨Act now: bit.ly/3H39E35

Earlier today, the House passed a budget bill slashing $300B from SNAP—taking food off the table for families, kids, older adults, and veterans. This cruel vote will deepen hunger across America. The Senate must stop it. Read our statement: frac.org/news/housegopb…

Can you imagine you pass a bill to undo decades of policy that reduced hunger & improved the economy for farmers & grocers… And then you have the audacity to call it a “big beautiful bill.” The GOP is sick. This is so disrespectful to people who will go hungry as a result.

#SNAP facts: SNAP is the most effective anti-poverty program, providing assistance when it's needed for as long as it's needed, as well as supporting local economies, farmers, and businesses.
