Tell the Administration to Keep Hands Off SNAP—Comment by April 2

From the Food Research and Action Center (http://www.frac.org):

Food assistance for the hungry shouldn’t have a time limit. Yet, the Trump Administration has proposed a rule that would take away SNAP eligibility for 755,000 unemployed and underemployed adults. That means cutting SNAP food benefits by $15 billion over 10 years. This would make hunger and poverty in this country far, far worse.

Tell the Administration to keep hands off SNAP at http://www.frac.org/timelimitcomments,

FRAC, Feeding America, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, and the Center for American Progress (CAP) are coordinating a campaign to generate comments in opposition to the SNAP rules change.

See FRAC’s model comment and submit your comment opposing the proposed rule today. The public comment period closes on April 2.

For feedback, suggestions, and technical assistance on the proposed rule, contact Ellen Vollinger at evollinger@frac.org.
