Hi John,
Right now, too many college students in America are struggling to afford their next meal.
Under the current law, most full-time students are blocked from accessing SNAP unless they work 20+ hours a week or meet narrow exemptions. It’s a broken system — and it’s leaving students behind.
That’s why Senator Kirsten Gillibrand just reintroduced the EATS Act: a bill that would expand SNAP eligibility to low-income students and ensure no one has to go hungry just to get an education.
Even with Republicans in control of Congress and actively trying to gut programs like SNAP, Senator Gillibrand is refusing to back down.
She’s fighting to defend basic human dignity and build a country where every student, worker and family can thrive. But we need grassroots support behind her every step of the way.
Will you sign your name to support expanding food assistance for students?
This isn’t just a policy fight. It’s a values fight. And while Republican leadership may try to stall or block progress, we’re building the grassroots pressure needed to push forward anyway.
Add your name now and stand with Senator Gillibrand in the fight to expand SNAP and ensure no student goes hungry.
Thank you for taking action,
Team KG for NY
