During one of the worst national recessions the government has decided to cut $12 billion from the Food Stamp fund, potentially effecting 41 million Americans.
In the midst of Michelle Obama’s campaign to eat well, the Government has decided to help its citizens do just the opposite.
House members convened Tuesday to pass the multibillion-dollar bailout bill for cash-strapped states. The Bill requires that $12 billion be stripped from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps, to help fund programs that provide $10 billion to school districts. The money will be used to rehire laid-off teachers or ensure that more teachers won’t be let go before the new school year begins, keeping more than 160,000 teachers on the job, the Obama administration says.
Connecticut Rep. Rosa DeLauro, blasted the move as “a bitter pill to swallow” but still voted yes.
“I fought very hard for the food assistance money in the Recovery Act, and the fact is that participation in the food stamps program has jumped dramatically with the economic crisis, from 31.1 million persons to 38.2 million just in one year,” DeLauro said in an e-mail sent to FoxNews.com. “But I know that states across the nation and my own state of Connecticut also desperately need these resources to save jobs and avoid Draconian cuts to essential services for low income families.”
The Food Research and Action Center said a family of four would see benefits drop about $59 per month starting in 2014.

President Barack Obama on Tuesday unveiled what he calls a comprehensive national strategy to fight HIV/AIDS. Critics assert that the plan falls far short of what is needed, while others call it an important step toward a more coordinated and effective national response to AIDS.
The plan aims to reduce infections by 25 percent within five years, expand education about the disease, and increase the number of infected people who are aware of their HIV-positive status.
Addressing some 250 AIDS activists and community leaders at a White House reception, the president said the new strategy comes nearly 30 years after the medical community first documented some of the first cases of AIDS.
It will work, he said, in a comprehensive and coordinated way to improve therapy for those with HIV, expand testing, and narrow health disparities by ensuring that treatment is available in disadvantaged communities.

The last time Van Jones spoke at a Campus Progress National Convention, he was an environmental adviser in the White House — “and now I’m not,” he said at this year’s conference Wednesday. “That sucks.”
But despite his self-described “rough exit” from the White House last September, he said he wouldn’t trade the experience for anything.
“What I learned in those six months [in the White House] I am going to be able to take with me forever,” he said addressing a group of 1,200 young liberal activists at the Campus Progress national conference in downtown Washington. It was Jones’ first high-profile remarks about his White House experience.
“If you were given the same opportunity I was to go and serve for six months, and it was 100 percent guaranteed that you’d have the same rough exit that I had, do it — it’s worth every minute,” he said.
