Help more hungry people get access to public assistance and food.
Why is this important?
To qualify for SNAP in San Francisco, a family of one can make no more than $1,265 a month, and for that will only receive a maximum benefit of $194 in SNAP. To qualify you have to be considered in poverty, shouldn't SNAP be a preventative to poverty instead of a last resort? San Francisco has a very high cost of living and there are plenty of people who need public food assistance who earn more money than the maximum allowed a month to qualify for SNAP.
