Our Policy Priorities
We urge Congress to delay the SNAP cost shift to states to keep food assistance accessible for Texas families facing hard times.
We urge Congress to pass a strong Farm Bill that increases funding for key federal agriculture and nutrition programs.
We urge Congress to strengthen TEFAP funding so food banks can provide more nutritious food to neighbors facing hunger.
We urge Congress to strengthen CSFP funding so seniors and older adults can access nutritious monthly food packages that support their health and well-being.
We urge congress to protect SNAP’s purchasing power and streamline SNAP eligibility and enrollment so that people and families can have access to the food they need to thrive.
Tarrant Area Food Bank and the Feeding America network urges Congress to partner with us to increase opportunity for the people we serve while strengthening and improving federal nutrition programs.
