House votes to cut $700 mln in food stamps
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives voted on Friday to cut $700 million from the food stamp program, despite objections from antihunger groups complaining that estimates show some 235,000 people would lose benefits. The House bill, which also trimmed other social programs for the poor in an effort to reduce federal spending by $50 billion, was narrowly approved 217-215.
We are spending $700 million every 3 1/2 days in Iraq. Republicans have no problem cutting 235,000 people from food stamps to save a measly $700 million? They're the 'Christian Party'? Do you really think Christ would make that choice?
