California Counties Urge Adoption of Senate Farm Bill in Conference
House Version Would Cut SNAP Enrollment Deeply
CWDA joined the California State Association of Counties and the
County Health Executives Association of California (CHEAC) in
urging the House and Senate conferees to adopt the Senate version
of the Farm Bill as it relates to the Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program, or SNAP. The cuts to this program, known as
CalFresh in California, would be devastating to our low-income
working families who rely on it to keep healthy food on the
table.
