Millions of Americans could lose food stamp benefits under proposed farm bill
“A farm bill being negotiated in Congress could affect millions of Americans’ access to food stamps, a new study has found. The study, conducted by nonpartisan research firm Mathematica Policy Research and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and released Thursday, found that if the version of the farm bill already passed by the House becomes law, nearly 2 million households that participated in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in 2015 would no longer be eligible for benefits.”
