2008 budget and Farm Bill Reauthorization: A double danger for food stamps

The Food Research and Action Center (FRAC) has a great analysis of how the President’s proposals for the farm bill reauthorization and the 2008 budget provide a double danger for families in poverty.

According to FRAC, changes to the food stamp program would “mean that 329,000 people in working families with children which are low-income but not receiving cash assistance would lose eligibility.”

That’s bad news for the families that depend of food stamps to put food on the table. Show that you’re concerned, sign up for the food stamp challenge today.
