 Hello SJNOWIndivisibles,  

Call To Action:  Demand Repeal of Harmful SNAP Changes!!!

 After Trump signed his “Big, Beautiful Bill” into law more than 4 million people, many of whom are children, lost access to SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition assistance Program) benefits. Soon, states will be on the hook to pay even more for those still able to access these benefit, which could mean a raise in taxes or cutting of other benefits. Congress should repeal the SNAP cost-shift, before it triggers an unprecedented hunger crisis!

Hi, my name is (name) and I’m a constituent from (your town).

I’m calling to urge (representative) to use the Farm Bill to fully repeal the SNAP cost-shift to states, not just delay it. A delay stiill leaves states on the hook to cut the program or raise taxes to cover it. A full repeal is the only fix that actually protects the millions of people who rely on SNAP.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

IF LEAVING VOICEMAIL: Please leave your full street address to ensure your call is tallied.
