We’re deeply alarmed by potential cuts to federal nutrition programs as the House prepares to vote on its budget. These cuts would strip away a fundamental human right—access to food—from families, seniors & children relying on SNAP. Urge Congress to #ProtectSNAP OregonFoodBank.org/ProtectSNAP

Nearly 2 weeks ago over 250 people from every corner of Oregon came together at the State Capitol, meeting with 51 legislators across 75 districts, for the largest advocacy day since the pandemic! Join us in urging lawmakers to pass #SB611, to ensure food access is expanded to immigrants!

Earlier today, dozens of us were at the State Capitol for the #FoodForAllOregonians hearing! This is a major step toward ensuring everyone in Oregon can access the food they need. We have received 375+ testimony submissions, sharing powerful stories about why lawmakers must prioritize #SB611!

@nytimes.com: Oregon Food Bank is expecting to lose access to 30 truckloads of food under the CCCfreeze. Danny Faccinetti, Vice President of Oregon Food Bank, said: “It’s really hard to make up that volume that C.C.C. had been providing, especially at a time when the need is so great.” #nytimes
