Congress is passing a farm bill that will cut the food safety net - TopicsExpress



          

Congress is passing a farm bill that will cut the food safety net of this country, possibly $20 billion dollars. This cut to food aid programs could include school lunch programs, senior food programs, and SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). This is a time when many families have been struggling with unemployment, under-employment, and low wages and benefits, which tells me this is NOT the time to cut back on assistance.
