In 2007 - 2012 US food banks served an increasing number of Americans every year. In 2000 it was between 4 and 5 million people. By 2008 it was 30 million people. By 2010 it was 37 million people.
With the new cuts to food stamps that ****** this week. a Ted Cruz backed bill, food banks are gearing up for even more people as the average person currently on food stamps will have their benefits reduced by nearly $50 per month.
and before georges jumps in with his analogy that it's all those filthy minorities and gang members taking all these food stamps, here's a little FACTUAL statistic:
Seniors, ********, people with disabilities and veterans will be the groups hardest hit by the cuts because they are the groups most reliant on food stamps.
Cruz wants to cut an additional $40 BILLION out of the food stamp program SNAP which will be devastating to 1 in 7 Americans on SNAP and of those on food stamps 94% are employed.
