The vast majority on SNAP assistance are working. These people (Myself included) WORK. We pay taxes, buy goods and services, etc.

@GOP@WhiteHouse@SenateMajLdr#2018FarmBill Your job isn’t to further your constituents’ biases against the poor. Your job is to learn the facts and to help Americans not punish the poor. Work requirements might feel good but they’re unhelpful and add more barriers -
Your job is to eliminate barriers. Poor people may not be able to work due to transportation, lack of childcare, caring for sick family, or myriad other things. Perhaps a real infrastructure bill, higher minimum wage, childcare, healthcare would be more likely to achieve goals.

That’s just stupid and unhelpful. If they could work they wouldn’t need SNAP. Sooo many barriers for people in poverty and
@GOP just keep adding more instead of helping. Transportation, childcare, sick relatives, college, all these things affect them. -
Read “Bridges out Of Poverty”. Or visit a Community College & see how hard they work. You need to learn that things that are sooo simple for middle and upper class can be a major hurdle for poverty class.
#DoYourHomework. Your job isn’t to further constituents’ inherent biases.

67% of Americans think the president should release his tax returns https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2522 … 75% of Americans think gun laws should be more strict https://www.ipsos.com/en-us/news-polls/npr-ipsos-poll-majority-americans-support-policies-aimed-keep-guns-out-hands-dangerous-individuals … I mean as long as we're talking about what an "overwhelming amount of Americans are calling for".

No, support is in the details. Is there work in rural areas? Transportation? Health care? Job counseling? Or are you really reducing rolls?

You need to quit blaming the poor and disabled, you despicable republicans waste our money on first class everything and Trumps golf trips, you are so worried a poor or disabled person might get something “free”. Your party is pathetic. I prefer to Feed the hungry!

There are already work requirements for SNAP and they've been shown to be ineffective in increasing long term employment. But who cares about facts, it's about giving all our money to billionaires and war profiteers.

1) Why the f*** is SNAP included in a FARM bill? Where's the connection? 2) At what age should kids go get jobs? Senior citizens? 3) I've been on SNAP WHILE WORKING. That little bit of help kept me from becoming homeless, jerk. RETHUGLICANS KNOW NOTHING.
