Maggie exposes the stark consequences of a controversial House bill proposing deep cuts to SNAP benefits—cuts that could strip school lunches from over 18 million children and worsen hunger nationwide. Joined by Bobby Kogan of the Center for American Progress, they unpack how this legislation offloads costs onto states like Wisconsin, burdens taxpayers, and disguises harm under the banner of "fraud prevention." Plus, Dr. Kristin Lyerly and Laura Benjamin (3rd Congressional District candidate) urge a call to action—urging all of us to fight back against policies that favor the wealthy at the expense of working families.
