I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified.
So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life.
Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.

A hungry city is not a safe city. A hungry city is a place where we have to lock up baby formula in cages in our grocery stores as people grow desperate for ways to feed their families. That’s not New York.

Running for office? Currently holding office? Come work in our kitchen and meet the New Yorkers you hope to represent. You'll see how your votes on policies and budgets can mean life or death to food-insecure people.
Thank you, Zohran Mamdani, for your Q&A with asylum seekers about your platform and political views at Cafewal this winter. You listened to human stories about the very real struggle so many New Yorkers face when trying to access basic human needs. We will hold you accountable for these words.

Hi friends.
Food insecurity is a policy choice. It’s a non partisan issue and @evlovesnyc.bsky.social is committed to fighting against it. Whether it’s new NYers here to seek asylum in the face of harsh immigration crack downs, or a native NYer priced out of their home.

MAGA may call the proposed budget that the House passed last week “big and beautiful” but it seems more “cruel and dangerous” to us.
The budget cuts federal food assistance for 1.8 MILLION NEW YORKERS, INCLUDING A HALF MILLION NY CHILDREN. 2/3

This budget “efficiency” means that parents will skip meals to make sure their kids can eat. Older New Yorkers on fixed incomes will resort to less healthy but more affordable food options. And many more working New Yorkers have to turn to food banks like EVLovesNYC to get through the week. 3/3
