Nothing should stand in the way of people having access to the food they need to live. The USCCB supports the RESTORE Act, which would remove barriers to food assistance for those in need who are leaving incarceration and seeking to fully reintegrate into society. Take action on the USCCB alert to urge your members of Congress to support this bill.
