Save the Children Action Network is the political voice for kids. 

John,  

This summer, SCAN surveyed voters across the U.S. on critical issues like hunger. 

Their message was clear: To fight food insecurity, we must boost nutrition assistance!  

But lawmakers don’t always agree. Month after month, Congress has failed to pass a better Farm Bill – even as 1 in 5 rural children face the devastating impacts of hunger. 

It’s time to get on the same page, John. Tell lawmakers to strengthen lifesaving SNAP benefits before it’s too late.

1 in 5 kids across rural America are facing food insecurity. Together, we can end child hunger. Will you speak up today? 

No child should ever go hungry.  

It’s not a controversial take, John. We all envision a future where kids grow up healthy, happy and ready to reach their full potential.  

While politicians debate the best way to fight food insecurity, most Americans are on the same page.  

This summer, SCAN surveyed voters nationwide – and found common ground among people from all sorts of backgrounds. Here’s what we found: 

• 90% of swing voters say food prices are a big problem right now.  
• 85% agree that the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is critical for food-insecure families. 
• 79% want to increase SNAP benefits to keep up with inflation and help parents pay for groceries.   

There you have it, John: According to our poll, a majority of voters believe in strengthening SNAP. Now, it’s time for Congress to act.    

SNAP is a lifeline for 41.2 million people nationwide, including nearly 15 million children!  

Yet the average recipient receives just $6.20 in benefits per day.  

Could YOU afford three nutritious meals on that budget? I know it wouldn’t be nearly enough to feed my family – especially my growing son. 

Hunger is spiking, and kids need support to survive it. Please, urge Congress to protect and improve SNAP. 

Thanks for being a voice for kids,

Christy Gleason
