"Sen. John Fetterman Proposes SNAP Bill to Support Striking Workers Amid Hollywood Strikes"

Senator John Fetterman has introduced the Food Secure Strikers Act of 2023, which aims to support workers on strike by repealing restrictions on receiving SNAP benefits, protecting food stamp eligibility for public-sector workers fired for striking, and ensuring that income-eligible households can receive SNAP benefits even if a member is on strike. The legislation comes as over 150,000 actors and writers are on strike in Hollywood, and labor actions are intensifying across the country. Fetterman's bill has gained significant Democratic support in both the House and Senate.
