“Better late than never bipartisanship. We are happy to agree to these amendments en bloc, and I would be proud to support it. I just want to say that some of the rhetoric though coming out and the lack of fact-based--it is not that Republicans cut the dollar amount of SNAP per day for eligible individuals, they have just cut people from the program entirely. Republicans have shoved costs on to several States across this country that are just not going to be able to absorb those costs, and we know and CBO expects, that those States are going to have to kick people off the program. We worked together to make this a little more efficient. Mr. Chair, I yield back the balance of my time.”
