As WI families struggle with grocery costs, the Trump administration is pushing SNAP changes that could strip millions of food assistance.

Make no mistake about it—healthcare costs are through the roof because President Trump and Republicans in Congress passed their disastrous so-called Big Beautiful Bill and refused to do anything to provide real relief for working families.
ALT Ripped headline from The New York Times "Obamacare dealt yet another blow as premiums jump again premiums will increase an average 13 percent next year for millions of Americans, on the top of an earlier steep increase. It adds to the problems facing the program, which the Trump administration has weakened."
Our veterans served our country. Republicans in Congress voted to cut the Medicaid and SNAP funding thousands of Wisconsin veterans depend on.
Thanking veterans for their service means little when you're voting to undermine the programs that support them.
Last night, Wisconsinites made their voices heard after years of rising costs due to tariffs, the Iran war, and cuts to essential programs like SNAP and BadgerCare to give handouts to billionaires.
But the work isn't done.

Affordable healthcare is slipping further out of reach.
ACA enrollment in WI-03 dropped 19.1% between 2025 and 2026 after enhanced tax credits expired.
Western Wisconsin families deserve healthcare they can afford, not more barriers to coverage.

For some rural WI families, Head Start may be the ONLY licensed child care option available.
With costs rising and options limited, families shouldn't have to choose between working and finding safe care for their kids.

Food banks are being asked to fill a gap they simply can't fill.
