"SNAP is working, and my hope is that this Committee will look for ways to strengthen it so that we can continue to give families a hand up when they need it."

"I am all for flexibility, as long as it is not code for cutting the program, or eliminating the benefit."

"We need White House leadership to convene all the agencies and the departments together."

"If flexibility means block granting this program and limiting the amount of resources to go to help feed hungry people... I have a problem with that."
