Of note, the Trump administration killed the food hardship survey that's part of the Census Bureau's Current Population Survey.
Republicans led on the creation 30 yrs ago because they were tired of not having hard data on the issue.
The cut followed slashing of SNAP, our best anti-hunger program.

Call your Republican representatives.
Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.
