WASHINGTON, February 14, 2025 — At a time when millions of people throughout the country are struggling to make ends meet, Congress should be focused on strengthening critical food assistance programs, not weakening them. Yet, some Republicans in Congress are proposing drastic cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), our nation’s first line of defense against hunger, and school meals, which are critical to children’s health and learning. These cuts would take away food from people who need it, increase hunger, and harm the economy.
