Organizations: Join Letter Opposing Efforts in Congress to Cut,
Gut, or Weaken Federal Food Assistance Programs Please join thousands of national, state, and local organizations representing communities across the country urging Congress to reject proposals to cut or weaken SNAP and the child nutrition programs in budget reconciliation or later in the year in the Farm Bill. Take Action Now - Sign your national, state, or community-based organization (authorized signers only) on to this letter pushing back against proposals to cut, gut, and/or weaken SNAP and child nutrition programs. The deadline to sign on is February 28, 2025.
- Distribute this letter widely to your networks, listservs, and agencies and encourage them to sign and distribute widely.
The House and Senate Budget Committees are poised to markup their budget reconciliation bills and then issue funding instructions to the House and Senate Agriculture Committees and House Education and the Workforce Committee (among other committees). Members of these committees — and the entire Congress — need to hear a roar across the country, and from every congressional district, that cutting and/or weakening access to critically important food and nutrition programs is completely unacceptable. If you need any additional information or assistance, please contact Tim Klipp-Lockhart, tklipp-lockhart@frac.org, or Ellen Teller, eteller@frac.org. | |
