President Trump and Congress (led by House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell) are intent on cutting back on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) without considering the real consequences of this action. Anti-hunger advocates in Indiana created a 37-second video with this simple message for Congress, which will make a decision on funding for crucial domestic nutrition programs (and international assistance).
"If Congress cuts back SNAP, it's really 41 million hungry
children, veterans, people with disabilities, seniors, and families who
will be left on the chopping block."
