Affirms support for SNAP and program's progress in reducing hunger among vulnerable populations in New Jersey.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 73) affirms New Jersey's support for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which provides food assistance to vulnerable residents. It condemns federal budget proposals that would cut $300 billion in food aid funding over ten years - primarily impacting SNAP - and urges the U.S. Senate to reject these cuts. The resolution highlights that nearly 850,000 New Jersey residents (9% of the population), including children, seniors, veterans, and the disabled, rely on SNAP to meet basic food needs. It emphasizes that reducing SNAP access would harm the state’s most vulnerable populations, though it does not create new policy changes.
