According to The Hill, “The White House is marking Thanksgiving by rallying opposition to a House GOP proposal cutting food stamp funding by $40 billion.”
“In a new report, the White House argues the bill would cut off 4 million Americans from [SNAP] support next year. In addition, it said 210,000 children would lose free school meals because of the cuts.”
“White House spokesman Matt Lehrich called the report a ‘reminder, as we hit Thanksgiving, it’s not the time to make it harder to put food on the table.'”
