    I am deeply disappointed the conservation title remains the target for funding cuts. According to CBO, this Farm Bill cuts the conservation title by $800 million over ten years.

    Simply having a job is not enough to lift someone out of poverty. Teachers across America are striking for better wages b/c, despite working a full-time, salaried job, many are forced to use SNAP & Food Banks to feed their families. That is not the American way.

    SNAP is the country's most effective anti-hunger program, helping 1 in 8 Americans afford a basic diet, with most recipients being seniors, children and the disabled. I cannot support a Farm Bill that will drastically cut these benefits.

    The means hardworking Americans will pay more. While Republicans claim we cannot afford Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. If Republicans really wanted to do middle-class tax cuts, they could have.

    While today is Equal Pay Day, this is not true for all women. Black women will have to work until August 7, 2018 to earn what men made in 2017,and Hispanic women will have to work even further.This is a disgrace and we have to do better by the women of our country.

    The wage gap is not determined by what field a woman enters into, what her education level is, or even her race. These factors only determine HOW much less she will be earning than a man during her career.

    The wage gap is not only a women's issue it is a problem that affects all members of our society. When women lose out on upwards of $10,000/yr in pay that is less money they can take home to their families, and less they can contribute to our economy.

    Since today is I will be doing a thread on the disparities that women face because they are continuously paid at a rate less than men. It is time that we ensure workers receive equal pay for equal work.
