Restore Devastating Cuts to SNAP
This House debate was on a measure to restore funding cuts to SNAP, the federal food assistance program. Representative Salinas, a Democrat, marked the one-year anniversary of last year’s Republican-drafted law, saying it cut billions of dollars from SNAP to pay for tax cuts and that about 70,000 people in Oregon lost their food benefits. She urged Congress to restore the funding so children, veterans, and seniors do not go hungry.
