TODAY is our National Call-in Day! Please join us and make your call today. This week, the House of Representatives will begin debating the Farm Bill. The House proposal would cut SNAP by $20.5 billion over the next 10 years. We cannot let this happen. Help us send a message to Congress by joining our National Call-in Day TODAY! Calling Congress is easy. Here’s how: • Call the Feeding America toll-free hotline at 866-527-1087 • Listen to the pre-recorded message and enter your zip code when prompted. Once you are connected to your Representative, state that you are a constituent and give your name and the town you are calling from. Be sure to give the name of the food bank or local agency if you are affiliated with one. • Let them know you are calling about the Farm Bill and deliver this important message: As your constituent, I am asking you to vote against the House Farm Bill due to the cuts to SNAP. With so many families still struggling to put food on the table, it is important to protect and strengthen programs like SNAP and TEFAP. I understand the need to reduce the deficit, but increasing hunger is not the way to do it. Then spread the word by sharing with your local networks and on social media.
