Mexico Helps Promote U.S. Food Stamp Program
Caroline May
The Mexican government has been working with the United States Department of Agriculture to increase participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), or food stamps. USDA has an agreement with Mexico to promote American food assistance programs, including food stamps, among Mexican Americans, Mexican nationals and migrant communities in America. “USDA and the government of Mexico have entered into a partnership to help educate eligible Mexican nationals living in the United States about available nutrition assistance,” the USDA explains in a brief paragraph on their “Reaching Low-Income Hispanics With Nutrition Assistance” web page. “Mexico will help disseminate this information through its embassy and network of approximately 50 consular offices.” The partnership — which was signed by former USDA Secretary Ann M. Veneman and Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs Luis Ernesto Derbez Bautista in 2004 — sees to it that the Mexican Embassy and Mexican consulates in America provide USDA nutrition assistance program information to Mexican Americans, Mexican nationals working in America and migrant communities in America. The information is specifically focused on eligibility criteria and access. The goal, for USDA, is to get rid of what they see as enrollment obstacles and increase access among potentially eligible populations by working with arms of the Mexican government in America. Benefits are not guaranteed or provided under the program — the purpose is outreach and education. Delivered by The Daily Sheeple Contributed by Caroline May of Daily Caller.

I despise anyone on the gov. tit.
SCREW um all, let them starve, thins out the gene pool.
sorry, but, I’m sick of paying for low life trash.
for old people with nobody to take care of them or people that are really unable to work, fine. but, all these people that come here from other countries and trash that have babies to get a bigger check or, get a fat or drunk check. Screw them, scrape them off.
@Sable, this is exactly the attitude of the ultra wealthy but they see you and all the rest of humanity as the trash.
The corporations cannot survive without gov. Aide they need tax breaks to hire and,low wage workers who can sign up for food stamps and medicaid.
