Please Explain - Why are so many full time employees on SNAP?

This is not speculation. Publicly available state and federal data have repeatedly shown that these companies rank among the top employers of SNAP recipients nationwide. These are corporations posting billions in annual profits, yet thousands of their full-time employees earn so little that taxpayers are left subsidizing their basic needs. That is not a functioning labor market—it is an indictment of a system that rewards corporate giants while shifting the burden onto the public. Americans are told that full-time work is the path to stability, dignity, and self-sufficiency. But for far too many workers, their paychecks cannot cover rent, food, childcare, and basic necessities. When companies with massive revenues deliberately keep wages low, they push their own employees onto public assistance programs. This is corporate dependence—not worker dependence. Congress must answer the following questions clearly and publicly: 1. Why are profitable corporations allowed to pay wages so low that full-time employees qualify for SNAP? 2. Why is the federal government effectively subsidizing low wages for multi-billion-dollar companies? 3. What oversight, data collection, or accountability measures currently exist—and why are they not preventing this? 4. What steps will Congress take to ensure that full-time work in America actually provides economic security? The American people deserve a labor system where work is honored with fair compensation—not a system where corporations benefit while taxpayers pick up the tab. This issue is not partisan. It is about fairness, responsibility, and economic integrity. I am demanding immediate investigation, full public reporting, and legislative action to ensure that full-time workers in the United States are paid wages that allow them to live without government assistance. If companies can afford record profits, stock buybacks, and executive bonuses, they can afford to pay their workers enough to eat. Do your job. Address this injustice now.
