Pantries that got free produce now have to pay $500 a truck. Hunger is set to double. Closures start in February.
This wasn't an accident. This was a budget line.
$3 million cut from food programs. $1.4 million from emergency feeding. SNAP changes hit 22.3 million families. 400,000 Maryland students lost nutrition programs overnight.
Poverty is a top four cause of death in this country. Over a million Marylanders can't meet basic needs.
We know what that looks like. The paycheck that doesn't stretch. The meal we skip. The prescription that waits. We didn't fail. The system worked as intended.
United Workers is poor and working-class people building power. Black, white, brown. Urban and rural. Our food sites aren't charity lines. They're where we find each other and figure out how to fight.
