Government programs should help Arkansans - not hurt them. We’re getting unhealthy foods and soft drinks off food stamps to fight chronic disease and help incentivize Arkansans with healthier options.

Our loved ones don't always reach out for help when they're overwhelmed, worrying they'll be a burden, or ashamed of appearing weak. Everyone deserves help in difficult times, so I built: It's already helped 40,000+ people. Try it. Save it. Share it.

Hopefully you increase the amount of money provided to them because those healthy options are expensive!

I wish I could pack up and move there! (But, not for the welfare!)

Next step is to remove chips and other ultra processed foods. Should only be able to get the bare necessities from food stamps. It’s an aide not a lifestyle. It should help people but encourage them to get back on their feet and be self sufficient if they want specific foods!

You are doing a horrible job as governor and I can't wait to vote against you. You are se3lling the state out to the highest bidder and the mexicans who work for them. I see you as a RINO.

All toxic foods and drinks must be removed from the shelves period! For ALL citizens. There may be nothing left for most of our food isn't fit for human consumption, why delay?

Why don't you think about President Trump said one day elections paper ballots and hand count. Why are you going again the Presidents Exe order ?

I present your RINO governor, who would rather push regulated "government programs" rather than address the issue of poverty.

Food, not junk. Arkansas is getting soft drinks and candy OFF food stamps starting July 1 - because taxpayer dollars shouldn’t be wasted on unhealthy junk.

Thanks to the 10:33 Initiative, Arkansas’ faith community is syncing with government agencies to help Arkansans in need, moving them off the path of dependency and onto the path of prosperity.

Hospitals should heal people—and that includes the food they serve. Patients deserve meals made with real, nutritious ingredients that help them recover, not highly processed foods that fuel chronic disease. That's why Dr. Oz CMS and I are launching the Make Hospital Food Healthier Pledge. Today, we're calling on hospitals across America to join us and commit to serving REAL, nutritious food to every patient. Together, we can transform hospital nutrition, improve patient care, and Make America Healthy Again.

Food stamps were meant to help Americans through hard times… not become a way of life. We’re $39 TRILLION in debt while fraud continues and Democrats fight back at every attempt to crack down on it because they want illegals dependent on government programs. The American taxpayers are DONE funding this abuse!

Americans’ wellbeing isn’t a bargaining chip. More than 240,000 Arkansans are days away from losing SNAP benefits that help put food on their tables. Chuck Schumer needs to stop the games and put Americans first.

Addiction is not a moral failing. We’re going to address the disease like any other chronic disease. We’re going to be making investments in connecting addicts with the faith-based community, 12-step programs, early intervention, and long-term recovery.

Donald Trump is making changes to the types of foods Food Stamps will be eligible to be used on Matt Walsh, “Food Stamps are temporary help, not a lifestyle — Do 40 million people need food stamps?” Why are 40 MILLION people on Food Stamps?? “There are too many people on the program, and the program is not nearly restrictive enough in terms of what you can use it to purchase” “Food stamps and entitlements have become a lifestyle for millions of people rather than a temporary helping hand to get them through a tough time, which is how all of these programs were initially sold to the public. That's what they were supposed to be”

A ban on junk food adverts has come into force today, in an effort to tackle childhood obesity. It means food and drinks high in fat, salt and sugar cannot be advertised on TV before 9pm and at any time online. It applies to some breakfast cereals and sandwiches, as well as to more obviously unhealthy foods like chocolate, pizzas and soft drinks.

Americans are free to eat what they want. But both taxpayer dollars and federal dietary guidelines should support healthy food choices – not ultraprocessed foods and sugary drinks.

120 MAHA organizations, farmers, and medical leaders just called on Trump’s USDA to make dramatic changes to SAVE our farmers. First, Farm Action’s Angela Huffman broke down how the USDA can help independent farmers with the stroke of a pen: “The government is the largest purchaser of food in our country.” “We’re calling for USDA to direct more of their $5 billion food buying budget to independent, sustainable farmers growing healthy foods.” “25 corporations receive over half of that money every single year, and it’s not right.” “Just making that simple shift—we’re not even asking for more money, we’re asking to use that $5 billion that they’re already buying food—would ensure that these taxpayer dollars are supporting real farmers, putting healthier food, organic, pasture-based, humanely raised foods into schools and public programs.”

I visited Dr. Shad Marvasti and other community leaders at Native Health in Phoenix, Arizona, to learn about their innovative work using healthy, locally-sourced, unprocessed foods to combat chronic disease. Native American communities experience some of the highest rates of chronic illness in the country, largely due to the prevalence of processed foods. Native Health stands as a powerful example of how food and lifestyle changes can help reverse this epidemic. This model should be replicated and become the standard of care across Indian Country.

Today, 90%+ of healthcare spend (all $4.5T of it) goes towards treating chronic conditions after someone is sick. Less than 3% of that spend goes towards prevention. Truemed exists to get more people investing in True Medicine. Exercise, food, supplements, movement, sleep, toxin removal… lifestyle interventions that help people treat and prevent disease, not just treat the symptoms of underlying sickness. We’re building tools that allow qualified individuals to unlock the $160B in tax-free HSA/FSA funds, and use them on these root-cause interventions. Since launching just 2.5 years ago, we’ve helped almost a million individuals pay for these interventions, and we’re just getting started. If we want to fix healthcare in America, we fundamentally have to help Americans get healthier. I’m extremely proud to announce our $34M Series A led by a16z, and am excited to continue our work to end the chronic disease crisis.

"Mary has gone off the rails...." I'm in uncharted territory with not a lot of support, and these patients aren't getting any help from the government, so I need to speak out for them!

Democrats are heartless! Thanks to their shutdown, Americans are not getting food stamps, our troops are worried about getting paid, and all the while, Dems are happy to take a paycheck. Every American should be outraged! Call Senate Democrats and tell them to open the government or give up their paycheck!
