Trump and House Republicans’ Plan to Cut Food Assistance Is Even Worse Than It Seems

RICHMOND, CA - NOVEMBER 01: Richmond Emergency Food Bank volunteer Abdul Olorode packs boxes with food to be handed out to needy people on November 1, 2013 in Richmond, California. An estimated 47 million Americans will see their food stamp benefits cut starting today as temporary relief to the federal program ends with no new budget from Congress to replace it. Under the new Supplemental Nutrition and Assistance Program (SNAP), a family of four that used to receive $668 per month will see that amount cut by $36. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
