Urge Congress to Take the First Step to Repeal Harmful SNAP Cuts in January 30 Continuing Resolution
The Jan. 30 continuing resolution (CR) must be the first step Congress takes to address the devastating Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) cuts that were included in the budget reconciliation law (H.R. 1) and reverse the law's devastating administrative and benefit cost shift to states.
States cannot afford the new SNAP benefit costs or the increased administrative expenses, and these provisions put the program and families at risk.
The Restoring Food Security for American Families and Farmers Act of 2025 offers the path to fully mitigate the harm H.R. 1 made to SNAP, and Members should cosponsor the bill and advocate for its passage.
It also is imperative that Congress does not move forward with any legislation until the harmful SNAP cuts in H.R. 1 are fully restored.
Use the FRAC Action Network to easily send a pre-populated email, or craft your own, to communicate directly with your Members of Congress.

Urge Senators and Members of Congress to Cut ICE Funding!
Coming into the New Year the House and Senate are proposing to expand immigration detention. There is already a record breaking 68,442 people in detention (via ICE December 22, 2025 stats). The proposal on the table includes additional funding for immigration enforcement and detention on top of the unprecedented $45 billion that ICE was given last year through the reconciliation bill. ICE and other government agencies have wreaked havoc across our country detaining individuals and locking them up in a deadly and inhumane system. Adding additional capacity will only escalate families being torn apart and subject them to horrific detention conditions.
Write your Representatives and tell them to stop funding ICE!
DEMAND A FARM BILL THAT WORKS FOR PEOPLE & THE PLANET, NOT BIG TECH
It’s no secret that folks are struggling right now.
Food and farm workers are fighting for safety and dignity in fields and factories. Farmers are organizing for climate and market resilience. And communities across the U.S. are demanding clean water, air and healthy food.
The House Agriculture Committee just released a farm bill that does nothing to help working people. The Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 doubles down on profit for Big Food, Ag and Tech corporations.
The Farm Bill touches all parts of our lives – from how food is grown and the land and water are protected, to whether families can access food. Instead of investing in workers, climate resilience, or local economies, this bill funds false climate solutions like ag tech, increases pesticide use, and keeps SNAP underfunded.
Together these policies directly harm our communities and the very people who feed us all.
We must demand better for our communities!
Tell your representative to VOTE NO on this Farm Bill. And demand Congress goes back to the drawing board to deliver a Farm Bill that:
Protects food and farm workers
Help farmers build resilience and recover from climate disasters
Invests in BIPOC producers
Includes Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) in conservation programs
Invests in local and regional food programs, not corporations.
