Summary
House Republicans are considering a 20% cut to SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits, impacting over 22 million households, as part of a $5 trillion deficit reduction plan.
The proposed changes to SNAP would save $247 billion over a decade by rolling back a Biden-era increase tied to the USDA’s “thrifty food plan.”
Critics argue the cuts could harm vulnerable populations and reduce demand for food production, while Republicans view the changes as a way to curb spending and encourage employment.
…and I’m sure all the people that suffer from this will be blaming the motherfucking DEMOCRATS if/when this comes to pass.
Well yeah, they shoulda had a majority to prevent it! It’s all their fault! /s
