DA BUX offers SNAP users half off when they purchase locally-grown produce. The program is in danger of budget cuts just when we need it most. Tell @GovHawaii, no cuts to food for #Hawaii families.

"It cannot be overstated: The need for food is immense. The incredible spike in need has crippled Hawaii’s supply chains and overwhelmed our emergency food networks."

30 million students participate in the National School Lunch Program — instead of shaming our children for their lunch debts, we need to tackle the problem of food insecurity in America. https://t.co/8EiSD6pIIh

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

Folks freaking out about Green New Deal sound like naysayers who said we would crash the economy in Hawaii with clean energy. We addressed all legit concerns, ignored trolls, and moved forward. We quintupled clean energy and lowered electricity rates, and created tons of jobs.

“You typically think of agriculture subsidies as price supports going to the large commodity producers,” said Nicole Milne of ⁦@KohalaCenter⁩. The foto Program provides “an important form of support that small-scale producers are able to access.” https://t.co/27WDyKrwDc

The #farmbill passes, protecting #SNAP and more than doubling funding for nutrition incentives! https://t.co/hcMO7qKthb

[Hawaiʻi Appleseed @HIAppleseed]

House passes the bipartisan #farmbill, an agreement that will protect #SNAP for nearly 170,000 #Hawaii residents. It now heads to the president's desk!
