As of Oct. 1, states must now pay a much bigger share of SNAP’s costs—forcing them to make deep cuts to vital services. Instead of investing in human needs, the government is funding more tax cuts for the rich. Tell Congress to restore funding! bit.ly/3W4FpQE
Today, Oct. 1, 75% of SNAP funding will shift to states. Working class people will be hurt most as states will be encouraged to cut healthcare, anti-hunger benefits, and other programs.
