Due to increased need for help our basement, which once contained weeks worth of food, is close to empty. This article by @SpencerJosephTV on @fox13 includes insight from @UAgainstHunger about how this is a statewide problem. fox13now.com/community/empt…

We must strengthen #WIC to provide vital nutrition support for millions of women and children as it currently faces potential funding cuts. Text FundWIC to 888-418-5699 to tell your Senator to protect & robustly fund WIC! actionnetwork.org/call_campaigns…

"When we make cuts - in SNAP, for example - it doesn't just hurt low-income folks," said Wilson. "It hurts the entire food system, where we're losing additional revenue - for grocery stores, for farmers' markets, for farmers, for producers." publicnewsservice.org/2024-01-02/hun…

One in every four Americans participates in federal nutrition programs such as #WIC or #SNAP. Congress needs to keep on improving and expanding the programs that help women, children, and families, not gutting them. More from CHN's #TrackingHardship 👇 chn.org/voices/human-n…

With rising food costs and increased participation in #WIC, it is essential that Congress step up and fully fund WIC now. Read more from NWA Board Chair, Kate Franken, @bread4theworld, and @toendhunger in @thehill: thehill.com/opinion/financ…

It wasn’t enough for House Rs to add older adults to #SNAP’s harmful work-reporting requirements in the #DebtCeiling agreement -- they’re back at it w/ 3 proposed amendments to the Ag Approps bill coming this week that would take food away from more than 1M ppl w/ low-incomes.

The GOP sham plan to keep the government open includes massive cuts to programs hungry people rely on. I can’t think of a more rotten thing to do! We must reject cuts and fund @POTUS’ $1.4 billion supplemental WIC request. America's most vulnerable are counting on us.

“It’s a positive way to run a school cafeteria,” said FRAC's Crystal FitzSimons. “Teachers don’t have to worry about kids coming back from lunch hungry or even starting the school day hungry and not ready to learn.” dallasobserver.com/news/dallas-ir…

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) delivers healthy food & nutrition to vulnerable moms, babies, & kids. With rising food costs & more participation, WIC needs more funding. Tell Congress adequately fund WIC at bit.ly/PROTECTWIC
