Congresswoman April McClain-Delaney joined her colleagues on Thursday in a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson calling for bipartisan negotiations for an upcoming Farm Bill. According to the letter, the current bill proposes the elimination of $230 billion, which would threaten the Supplemental Nutrition Program, known as SNAP. Congresswoman McClain-Delaney represents Maryland’s 6th District, which includes Allegany and Garrett Counties. She notes that 1 in 10 households in her district use SNAP benefits to pay for groceries.
