Trump's USDA Ripped Away 1 Billion Dollars in Funding For Food Banks and School Meals, Leaving the Most Vulnerable Hungry

Taking food out of the mouths of children and the hungry: this is one of the latest deplorable moves by the current U.S. administration.

Last month, the USDA -- the government agency that, among other things, is tasked with ending hunger nationwide -- announced that it was terminating over 1 billion dollars in funding that would go towards feeding the hungry.

It's all thanks to Donald Trump's ridiculous, ill-willed plan to cut federal spending where it's needed most while still allowing himself and his uber rich friends to enjoy tax breaks and a manipulated market.

This means that millions of children will lose the free school lunches they desperately rely on. Families in need of support, short on cash or living in food deserts, will suddenly be stripped of basic nutrition that food banks provide them. This comes at the exact time when food banks are actually seeing an increase in need as grocery prices rise and will only continue to do so with Trump's monstrous tariffs.

This is pure. Evil.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey put it best. "Donald Trump and Elon Musk have declared that feeding children and supporting local farmers are no longer 'priorities.'"
