Refugee Mom Nwe Oo Shares Struggles as Trumps Cuts Hit Safety Net Programs

Nwe Oo, a refugee mom from Burma, shares her experiences as a single parent relying on food stamps to feed her family. Now, federal cuts from President Trumps H.R. one are threatening safety net programs like CalFresh, Californias version of SNAP, leaving thousands of refugees and asylum seekers without support. Local leaders and residents, like Silvia Garcia, are calling for lawmakers to step up and protect these programs. A bill from state Senator Christopher Cabaldon, SB ten fifty-four, has passed a key committee, but new rules will tighten CalFresh for adults without young kids at home. The real test is keeping food on tables amid the squeeze.
