Nearly 1.5 million Americans dropped off the food stamp rolls since President Trump’s inauguration in January 2017, according to the latest U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) statistics on food stamp enrollment.
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participation dropped to 41,203,721 as of July 2017, the most recent data available from the USDA, from 42,691,363 in January 2017 when Trump took office.
According to the latest data, SNAP enrollment decreased by 3.48 percent, or 1,487,642, since Donald Trump began his presidency.
From May to July alone, nearly 400,000 Americans got off of food stamps, and the trend shows that enrollment has been consistently falling every month of Trump’s presidency.

With more and more smash and grabs in neighborhoods at night to compensate for the freebies that are being cut. People driving around and scoping out neighborhoods. If that truck you see is not owned by your neighbor...then check it out and take the tag number....he may be back that night.
ReplyDeleteNeeds to be cut in half, along with re-evaluating entitlement cases. Particularly disability claims that will eventually bankrupt this country. People are receiving permanent disability payments for alcohol abuse, drug addiction, obesity, even depression. If you see someone jump out of a vehicle with handicap plates and run into Walmart, more then likely also getting government disability
ReplyDeleteThat was to make room for the 1.5 million illegals and immigrants who now get food stamps. Dont be fooled. Working people were cut.
