"I want to publicly thank the governors, and praise these governors who have taken action for preventing these cuts from taking effect."

"the voices of those who are most desperate, who are most vulnerable, the voices of the poor, weren't heard adequately."

"And the sad reality is that they are working at wages that are so low that they still qualify for this benefit."

"That means in the Heat and Eat States a family of three could see an average of $120 per month cut in their SNAP benefit, which is just unconscionable."
