Rep. Marcia L. Fudge: “Instead of considering hungry individuals and their unique struggles and needs, the Department has chosen to paint them with the broadest brush, demonizing them as lazy and undeserving. The President has cynically weaponized USDA as a blunt political instrument, in clear opposition to its mission to ‘do right and feed everyone.’ USDA has sunk to a new low in its war on the poor.”

“According to recent data, roughly one million New Jerseyans experience food insecurity and nearly 700,000 New Jerseyans received SNAP benefits so far this year. Of those, over 300,000 were children. If this rule were to be enacted, some of those children would be at risk of losing their eligibility for free school meals.”
