SUMMARY:Help Protect SNAP in Nebraska!
DESCRIPTION:Food is essential. We just saw the recent government shutdown take key food supports away from friends and neighbors. We\, and our elected officials\, must do better to make sure every Nebraskan goes to bed with a full stomach. \nThis upcoming legislative session\, SNAP\, our nation’s most effective food assistance program\, is at risk\, and it’s important for all of us to know what’s at stake. \nJoin us on Zoom Thursday\, November 20th at 6pm CT to talk about current and upcoming changes to SNAP\, who’s at risk\, and what we need our elected officials to do about it. We’ll also share how you can be a part of the solution! \nWe know things are really heavy right now. Let’s hold space and strategize together to make sure access to one of our most basic needs is protected.
