To the Editor:
Recently, my congressman, Rep. MacArthur, voted for legislation that will make it harder for New Jerseyans to access food assistance. Once again, he was the only New Jersey elected official – Democrat or Republican – to support it. Both Congressman Smith to the north and Congressman LoBiondo to the south, who are also Republicans, voted no.
The bill passed in the House, but there is still a chance the Senate could stop the passage of these cuts to the food stamps program.
