NEW YORK STATE, AUG 8 – Legislation signed by President Trump cuts $1.4 billion in SNAP funding in New York, risking food insecurity for hundreds of thousands of families, advocates warn.

- Officials and educators fear the legislation will raise food insecurity, health problems, and economic hardship among vulnerable New Yorkers and children statewide.
