Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Against - Cutting food stamps before the holidays

The Trump administration is now quite literally robbing the poor to give to the rich. Yesterday, they implemented a new rule that will force more than 700,000 Americans off of their food stamps — just weeks before the holidays.

Forcing the hungry into destitution as massive corporations like Amazon pay $0 in taxes is a violation of our common humanity. It’s cruel, plain and simple.

We’re not standing for it. This is just the first of three new rules from the Trump administration, which is why our action now is critical. Will you sign your name to condemn Trump’s food stamp sabotage?

In a modern, wealthy, and moral nation, no family should go without food just because someone can’t work.

People’s lives are worth more than just the labor that they provide. If we’re spending trillions of dollars on war and tax cuts for mega-billionaires, not a single person should be going without food, water, or shelter. Period.

And this is just the beginning. The next rule change could affect up to 1 in 5 families on food stamps. Time is running out, so take action today by signing your name to stand against this injustice:

Thanks for your time,
