They’re cutting Medicaid, slashing food stamps, eliminating school lunch β€” and then giving the savings to billionaires.

They call it reform. We call it cruelty.

Not one more family sacrificed. Not one more dollar for their greed.

Medicaid, SNAP were essential for these people. Now the programs’ funding is in jeopardy. President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act could be devastating for working people.

β€œ'At one point, I had five jobs,' Erinn Batykefer said of her time on SNAP while in grad school. Even so, she said, her rent ate up 75% of her paycheck, leaving her stretching $250 each month to pay for the rest of her expenses. So, for her, the $200 she could get from SNAP made all the difference."
