This proposal would reverse a bipartisan directive to improve SNAP's Thrifty Food Plan and result in a roughly $30 billion cut over the next decade. New Yorkers who rely on SNAP to put food on the table would lose over $2 billion in nutrition assistance in 2027-2033.

An op-ed by @FeedWestchester underscores the urgent need for full funding for #Meals4AllNY in the state budget. Even with significant need in Westchester, ~40% of schools can't offer free meals to all kids. @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie recordonline.com/story/opinion/…
A report found decreased participation in school lunch & breakfast in NY & other states, noting a striking exception—participation increased in states with universal school meals. NY must fully fund #Meals4AllNY so no child is hungry at school. bit.ly/NY-School-Meal… @fractweets
SNAP helps more than 2.8 million New Yorkers put food on the table. It is a vital support for children, seniors, people with disabilities, working families & more. We must protect SNAP from cuts that would harm those who rely on it to get the food they need. #SNAPMatters

This map shows that 2/3 of schools left out of expansions in universal school meals are on Long Island & in the Hudson Valley. We urge @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie to fully fund #Meals4AllNY because no child should go hungry at school. bit.ly/HSMFANY-Map
Nearly 660 NY schools cannot offer universal no-cost meals. These schools are left to operate means-tested programs that leave hungry children behind. The solution to equitable access to free school meals statewide: Fully fund #Meals4AllNY in the budget! ow.ly/uOm050Rbztf
Nearly 1 in 4 kids in schools without universal school meals are low-income. We urge @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie to close the gap & fully fund #Meals4AllNY. Every student, every day, should have guaranteed meals at school! bit.ly/HSMFANY-Map

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
SNAP is the nation’s first line of defense against hunger – a program which over 40 million people use everyday. TFP is the formula used to figure out what the SNAP benefit amount will be. /2
To make the right policy for the right time, we need the right information. Here are the facts on the Thrifty Food Plan (TFP) in SNAP and why Congress must protect it. /1
Will NYS uphold its commitment to cut child poverty statewide? It will take a budget that permanently invests in policies proven to reduce poverty: robust child tax credits, the Housing Access Voucher Program, accessible & affordable child care, Healthy School Meals for All.
.@GovKathyHochul @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins: New York's families need relief, now. This year’s enacted state budget must expand and strengthen NY's tax credits for families. It can't wait. Need more proof? We pulled it together here: newyorkcan.org/wftc2024/
We're watching for a budget that upholds NY's commitment to cut child poverty statewide! That budget will permanently invest in policies proven to reduce poverty: robust child tax credits (#NYWFTC), accessible & affordable child care, #SchoolMeals4All, and #HAVP.
State budget negotiations are still ongoing. Call today to send a clear message to NY leaders: It's time to fully fund #Meals4AllNY. The only way to ensure equity is to make sure all children can access free meals. bit.ly/HSMFANY-ActNow

For 9 years NY has flat-funded the Women, Infants & Children (WIC) program. Participation is growing with more pregnant women, breastfeeding women & more families participating & benefitting. But only 50% of parents are participating though so let's invest in what works!
