.@HouseAgGOP @HouseAgDems must keep these key points in mind when working on the #FarmBill. None of these real-world metrics are cost neutral - it is a stretch to expect Thrifty to be cost neutral too. Investing in people costs money. Cutting these programs costs lives.
TFP takes things into consideration like: Current food prices, What people are buying, Dietary guidance, What’s available in the marketplace These are all items that have greatly changed in the past 40 years - so why should the SNAP benefit be left behind? /3
