I think it is pretty basic math to say that as more people are accessing these programs and it's growing, if we are not continuing to invest in them, that is, in essence cutting SnaP benefits. You can call it whatever you want, but We pulled data from the CBO's May baseline that refutes [the Republican's] account. So I have another chart that I would like to introduce into the record to show that if we keep the thrifty food plan cost neutral, this is the Republicans plan, this is the Democrats plan, benefits will be decreased.
