Mr. Speaker, I am delighted to be leading this Special Order hour on the SNAP program and the current threats against it in the farm bill. SNAP, of course, is America's most important antihunger program, serving more than 42 million Americans and delivering improved economic, health, and nutrition outcomes for millions of our families, reducing poverty and food insecurity. To kick us off tonight, I yield to the gentlewoman from the great State of Washington, Pramila Jayapal, my distinguished colleague.
