Rep. Aguilar Highlights Costly Impact of Republican Cuts to Food Assistance in the Inland Empire

Rep. Pete Aguilar (CA-33) held a press conference at the Inland SoCal United Way and 211+ to discuss the impact Republican cuts to healthcare and food assistance are having on individuals and families here in the Inland Empire. As part of their Big Ugly Bill, Trump and Republicans enacted the largest funding cuts to healthcare and food assistance in U.S. history, resulting in millions of Americans losing access to health insurance and families going hungry. This means in California, up to 2 million people could lose their health insurance through Medi-Cal, and more than 3 million households are at risk of losing their access to food assistance through CalFresh.
