Worth lifting up that the article notes that family homelessness could be ended for just under $1 billion.

Meanwhile, corporate CEO’s rake in millions, the GOP lies about SNAP slush funds and 42 million hard working Americans and their children go hungry…
FACTS about SNAP:

-35% to white people (largest share)
-90% to people born in 🇺🇸
-86% to households with kids
-70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

“Research on the microbiome is proof of how intertwined our bodies are with the natural world. Every mouthful of food, the air we breathe and things we touch connects these two worlds. The desire to keep our own microcitizens healthy is another reason to demand we live more nature-rich lives.”
The nature extinction crisis is mirrored by one in our own bodies. Both have huge implications for health
Modern life is waging a war against ecosystems around us and inside us. Keeping our own microbes healthy is another reason to demand action to preserve the natural world
