The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans.

Trump and Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid will directly cause more preventable deaths in communities across America.
It’s cruel, inhumane, and unimaginable — and it’s all in service of a giant tax break for the richest corporations and billionaires.
