Save SNAP - don’t shift costs to states

To: Sen. King, Sen. Collins, Rep. Pingree

From: A verified voter in South Portland, ME

May 14

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a vital lifeline for millions of low-income Americans, providing them with the means to access nutritious food and maintain a basic standard of living. Cutting SNAP benefits would have devastating consequences, plunging countless individuals and families deeper into poverty and food insecurity. It is crucial that we prioritize the well-being of our most vulnerable citizens by preserving and strengthening this crucial safety net program. SNAP not only helps put food on the table for those in need, but also serves as an economic stimulus, injecting billions into local economies. I urge you to reject any proposed cuts to SNAP funding and instead work towards expanding access and improving the program's efficacy.
