My proposal is food subsidy for low income families who are not eligible for snap, but who still have hardship, economic hardship, even though they're above the SNAP threshold. SNAP is a federal Supplemental Nutrition Program which would be from 130% to 150%. And this would provide them $100 per month. The assemblyman's proposal is government run grocery stores, one per borough. (07:25–07:34)
