🗣️ Feeding families shouldn't be up for debate! Please speak out against the proposed $300 billion cut to SNAP. With food insecurity up 65% in New Jersey, now is not the time to take meals off people’s tables. 📞 Call your representative at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to protect our communities and oppose cuts to SNAP in the budget reconciliation bill that's making its way through Congress right now. You can say this: “I’m calling to express my deep concern about the proposed $300 billion cut to SNAP in the budget reconciliation bill. Recent data released by Feeding America shows that food insecurity is up 65% in New Jersey since 2020. These cuts would cause more hunger and hardship for children, families, veterans, older adults, and many others across New Jersey. I urge you to oppose any cuts to SNAP and other essential programs that help people meet their basic needs. Feeding families shouldn’t be up for debate, please save SNAP. Thank you for your time.” (fb)

📢 Time is running out to tell Congress NO CUTS TO SNAP! ⚠️ In just a few days, the House will vote on a bill that would gut critical nutrition support for families in need by cutting funding, restricting participation, and burdening state budgets. For 1 in 10 New Jersey families like Anny's, SNAP isn't just assistance; it's survival. She and her husband both work full-time jobs — he’s a line cook; she works in a school cafeteria. They’re doing everything they can to support their three young kids. SNAP benefits help fill the gap so their children don’t go hungry. But when they picked up just a few extra hours at work, their benefits were cut. And under proposed changes to SNAP, families like theirs could see even more reductions. That means less food on the table — even when parents are working hard.
