42 million people nationwide rely on SNAP for critical food support. Now, thanks to anti-worker extremists in Congress, families are going to go hungry, because the administration is not providing full funding for SNAP. Tell Congress to fund public services. 1-888-981-9704

I wrote about the should-be-illegal trend of fencing off sidewalks because poor people are nearby. www.minnpost.com/cityscape/20...
