SNAP, our nation’s most effective anti-hunger program, will be reauthorized as part of the 2018 Farm Bill. Based on past Farm Bills and what we are already hearing from Congress, we expect the program to be at risk of significant cuts or damaging policy changes. Threats to the program could also come through the federal budget process or other legislative action.
As we prepare for a busy year ahead, it is crucial that our federal delegation understands the important impact of SNAP to Montana. In order to bring this message to D.C., we are launching a SNAP postcard campaign. Individuals can write messages on the card about the difference that SNAP makes to them or to their community. Our goal is to collect as many postcards as possible to bring to D.C. and hand deliver them to our Congressional offices at the end of February.
We need your help! Fill out a digital postcard below. MFBN will combine your voice with others from around the state to urge our Senators to protect and strengthen SNAP!
