Maggie tackles the draconian cuts to SNAP benefits in Wisconsin as part of the HR1 mega bill, dubbed the 'big brutal bill.' She and Kids Forward experts Amanda Martinez and William Park Sutherland discuss the devastating impact of increased work reporting requirements on 700,000 Wisconsinites. The bill slashes funding, burdens families with red tape, and risks collapsing the system. Maggie criticizes the Trump administration's hypocrisy—ballooning bureaucracy for the needy while cutting billionaire regulations.
