The Corporations That Turned Their Backs on Hungry Children

[justaprogressive]

Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a reconciliation bill so cruel, it defies belief: slashing nearly $300 billion from SNAP, our country’s most vital nutrition program, and gutting Medicaid—ripping food from the mouths of children and care from the hands of those who need it most.

Eleven major American corporations—companies that proudly trumpet their “partnerships to end hunger” in PR campaigns and glossy reports—endorsed the Republican bill that will increase hunger and suffering for millions of American families.

Who They Are—and What They Did
AT&T boasts about donating $1 million to Feeding America, yet it publicly backed the Republican bill that will gut SNAP to protect its tax interests.
T-Mobile, while showcasing food drives and hunger relief donations, endorsed the legislation, citing benefits to its wireless infrastructure.
United Airlines, a partner of Rise Against Hunger, supported the bill slashing food aid while promoting its corporate philanthropy.
Uber claimed to fight food insecurity through logistics, but praised the same bill that will make food less accessible to millions.
Comcast, which made headlines for food insecurity grants, celebrated the tax provisions of the bill and urged its quick passage.
