Families & The Federal Budget Family Economic Security Food!

June 8, 2023

Last week a bipartisan deal kept the U.S. from the brink of economic disaster and saved millions of jobs… but there was a price to pay for that: Further time restrictions and harsh work requirements were passed for 750,000 SNAP (food stamps) recipients.
