This bill is a disaster for children. It walks away from a 50-year commitment to ensure that poor children in rural Alabama and New York City all have access to the food assistance they need to grow and thrive.
The House Ag bill released tonight would take away or cut #SNAP food benefits for millions of low-income people struggling to afford groceries—families w/ children, seniors, ppl w/ disabilities, veterans & workers in low-wage jobs.

My kid was home sick yesterday and I had to decide whether or not to send him to school today.
I'm lucky. That choice wouldn't cost my job or make me lose pay.
But if the GOP proposal passes low-income families would have to weigh all that and if staying home would jeopardize their ability to eat.

The new GOP proposal for SNAP cuts would take food off the table of 7 year olds if their parents can't report enough work hours. When my kids were 7, they were playing foursquare, learning math facts, and being silly.
Imagine getting LESS help to feed your kids if your boss cuts your hours.
