#Blackout4Ed - The General Assembly is making it harder and harder for your local schools to do their jobs. Make your voice heard and stand up for public education!
We ask @SenToddYoung and @SenatorBraun to join their colleague in supporting a #SNAP increase. Hoosiers are struggling with the #COVID crisis economically. Our food banks are working hard too, but for every one meal @FeedingAmerica food banks distribute, SNAP provides 9.
National Association of State Departments of #Agriculture CEO Barb Glenn says, “This relief package falls short of meeting the needs of the food and agriculture community.” @SenToddYoung @SenatorBraun https://t.co/YGcgLQXzG3
Recent census survey data reveals that since the pandemic, one in five Hoosiers has used credit cards or loans to pay regular bills & nearly one-fourth said they've tapped into savings accounts or sold assets. #ProtectConsumers @SenatorBraun @SenToddYoung https://t.co/jhm4BkPl9w
Our #SNAP priorities are: 1) boosting SNAP maximum benefits by 15%; 2) increasing the minimum monthly SNAP benefit from $16 to $30; 3) suspending SNAP time limits or admin rules changes that would cut benefits. #COVIDHelp4Hoosiers#HEALSAct@SenToddYoung @SenatorBraun
