Congress wants to take SNAP dollars away!

Hey Congress, hands off our SNAP!

Please tell your story to help them understand!

Almost 750,000 people in Tennessee use SNAP, also knowns as food stamps, to help feed their families. But now, Congress wants to make big cuts to the program. They want to take away $230 billion from SNAP. This means families could get much less money for food—or lose their help completely. Congress also wants to take SNAP away from more people who have a hard time finding a job. You can help! Please tell leaders how these changes would affect you and your family by answering the questions below.

If you would rather share your story on the phone, please call Crys Riles, Anti-Hunger Advocate, at 615-846-4726, and leave a message with your story.

(Stories may be shared with elected officials, state and federal agencies, the press, and on the Tennessee Justice Center's social media and website. All names and identifying information are confidential and will not be shared publicly without your permission.)
