1. “SNAP, formerly food stamps, is a critical anti-hunger safety
net program that effectively and efficiently helps 47 million low-income
Americans put food on the table. You must work to protect and
strengthen SNAP, as you consider the 2013 farm bill.”2. “I urge you to support efforts to restore cuts to the program and to vigorously oppose any proposals that cut SNAP."
3. “As a constituent and a voter, I plan to stay informed about how you and your colleagues address hunger in the United States.”
