Gov. Wolf Warns: Food Stamp Benefits For 200,000 People Jeopardized By Trump Administration

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Gov. Tom Wolf is warning that food stamp benefits for about 200,000 people are jeopardized by a Trump administration move to stop allowing states to exceed federal income eligibility thresholds. Wolf said Monday that such a change would primarily affect the elderly, the disabled and lower-income families. He also says it’ll result in fewer school lunches. In Pennsylvania, more than 1.7 million people are in the food stamp program.
