Feeding Indiana’s Hungry announced its extreme displeasure with the passage of House Resolution 1 (HR1). The cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in HR1 will reduce critical SNAP support by up to 6 billion meals to as much as 9 billion meals each year*.
The following statement may be attributed to Emily Bryant, Executive Director of Feeding Indiana’s Hungry:
“Today’s passage of the budget reconciliation is undisputedly the most damaging federal policy targeting hungry Hoosiers that modern America has ever seen,” said Emily Bryant, Executive Director of Feeding Indiana’s Hungry. “Feeding Indiana’s Hungry network of food banks will continue serving hungry Hoosiers, thanks to our partners dedicated to feeding our neighbors in need—we are always in need of additional allies—please consider joining our efforts.”
House Resolution 1, the budget reconciliation legislation, now heads to President Donald J. Trump for further action.
