One of those kids will grow up & become an anti-hunger leader. They will research the leaders who let them go hungry. They will dedicate themselves to undoing the legacy of those leaders. I know. I was that kid.

This year, 35 states will participate in a $2.5 billion federal nutrition program that will help low-income parents buy groceries for their kids in the summer. But Texas, which has 3.8 million kids eligible for the program, has opted out of the effort. bit.ly/3OU5lbk

30 yrs ago 28% of US kids lived in poverty ⬇️ 1993: child poverty down by 35% when govt. broadened safety net ⬇️ 2017 & 2021: #ChildTaxCredit expansion took child poverty down to 11% & then record 5%! 📊 from @profgalloway

After all, it is estimated that each SNAP dollar spent during a recession generates between $1.50 and $1.80 in economic activity. This is a unicorn win-win where we see households with low income and the economy both benefiting. Protecting TFP seals the deal. /7
It’s one thing to promote access to SNAP – it’s another to promote SNAP to access food. SNAP can only access food if the benefits keep up w/ current food prices based on the current market. We cannot - and should not - expect the formula update to be cost-neutral. /4
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
