- 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.
- And - it will for the first time take food assistance away from parents who can't meet a red tape-laden work requirement, leaving the family without enough to afford food for their kids.
- So what you're saying is, mass starvation is coming to America, and Trump and Republicans are doing this to pay for a tax cut for the rich?
- AWFUL!! And for what....rich folks have enough!!
- To cut taxes on the wealthy. Shameful
- Unfortunately, so many who voted for him will be affected by this, as well as others who didn't and way too many children. A future with this in it is so very ugly.

- But "No, no it won't" says every republican in congress. But days after bill passes....."Yes, yes it did." How do I know this? Trump ran on no cuts to medicaid. RFK Jr ran on support of vaccines.
- This is where you have to hold their feet to the fire. Corner them and demand "What's the upside to this? Who wins?"
- Republican politicians want poor people to die 🤬
- They. Don't. Care. 😢
- Isn’t it weird here we thought they were pro life! Force pregnancy then deny help awesome makes perfect pretzel logic from the republicants
- Well then urban legislators should vote against it. SNAP was included in the AG bill to ensure bipartisan and urban support. Remove that? I was married to a farmer have nephews who farm and I say vote against it.
- One way to fight back. Show up. www.nokings.org Everywhere except in DC to avoid the nonKing’s military birthday parade. So much $ for a parade, so little for hungry children. For shame.
