A WaPo story today; https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2023/02/16/food-stamps-gop-proposed-cuts/

I've written a lengthy e-mail to my representative, Jason Crow about my concern [I am LIVID]. Most of my comment reflects my middle son's need for food aid as a recipient of SSI which is a "supplement" from Social Security to people with disabilities. [Before the recent cost-of-living increase it was about $800/month-- just the amount any American can live on, right?]

Here's how I ended the e-mail;

Please call on me if there's any way our story, which is like so many others in the disability community, can help in this ridiculous fight to take food away from the poorest people in our country. Their argument is absurd, yet shows the lack of character of those holding office as Republicans. People matter.

Hey Jessica, is it ok to take your calls to action and forward them the members of my organization? I really don’t have time to write originals and so appreciate your clarity and doing the good work for us!

Do you have a voter guide for the March 7 Muncipal Elections?

I live in Redondo Beach and want to share there and also other surrounding cities.
