Act Now: Help close the meal gap.
Dear Friend,
This is Emilio, HFA's Director of Advocacy, and as our CEO Joel Berg continues his Journey to End Hunger this summer, my team is ramping up our efforts to make sure that essential bills like the Closing the Meal Gap Act are passed.
Congresswoman Alma Adams of North Carolina is one of the co-sponsors of the bill and speaks in the video below about how critical the Act is to reducing hunger post-COVID and ensuring more families have access to nutritious food through the SNAP program. This bill would increase the food purchasing power of SNAP by 30 percent – a huge difference for those that rely on the program to meet their monthly nutritional needs.

I'm asking you to call on members of Congress to support the Closing the Meal Gap Act by adding your name to our petition ([link removed]) . We'll share your name with your representatives so they know their constituents support the bill and are passionate about ending hunger in their cities and states. You can also donate to Hunger Free America so we can continue the fight to permanently end hunger.
Will you join us in advocating for greater food justice for our communities? ([link removed])
Thank you,
Emilio Tavarez
Director of Research, Policy & Advocacy
