Americans are relying on
what we used to call food stamps in unprecedented numbers. According to
figures released in September, more than 46 million Americans, about one
in seven, are getting government assistance for food, but it’s
estimated that millions more struggle with hunger. The nation’s food
banks, supported by private dollars and donations, are straining to fill
the gap. Federal funding for food stamps is not on the line in the
current tax and spending negotiations, but some believe new limits on
government food assistance programs are needed. Please join us to
discuss hunger in America and what we can do about it.
