Stand up for Working Families. Oppose the SNAP Rule Change by September 23, 2019!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Administration is proposing to gut states\u2019 options to eliminate\u00a0SNAP<\/strong>\u00a0asset tests and use a higher income test to serve more working households that have significant expenses for shelter and childcare. The USDA proposal would eliminate SNAP (i.e., food stamps) benefits for 3.1 million individuals, take free school meals away from the children in those families, and punish people with even meager savings.\u00a0It is unacceptable to take food away from working families, children, seniors and people with disabilities.<\/strong>\u00a0The Unitarian\u00a0Universalists for Social Justice (UUSJ) urges you to submit your comments and take actions.<\/p>\n

Voice your concerns regarding this proposed rule change by making a public comment via\u00a0Regulations.gov<\/a>\u00a0NO LATER THAN\u00a0SEPT 23<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
