Rep. Subeck: Republicans take another swipe at Wisconsin's most vulnerable residents
9/29/2015

CONTACT: Zach Madden, 608-266-7521(office) 920-627-5773 (cell)

MADISON –Representative Lisa Subeck (D-Madison) released the following statement regarding AB 188 and AB 200. Today, the Assembly Public Benefits Reform Committee passed AB 188 and held a public hearing on AB 200. If passed and signed into law, both bills would make it harder for our state’s most vulnerable residents to utilize FoodShare to put food on their families’ tables.

“Republicans are piling on in their quest to demonize hardworking Wisconsin families in need of assistance to get by in a tough economy, using fraud as a smoke screen to add new barriers for FoodShare participants.

These changes will have a significant disproportionate impact on senior citizens and individuals with disabilities............

2. Republican tactic: if you starve the poor & elderly, before long you won't have any poor or elderly.

3. It is truly a tragedy what they have done to Wisconsin

4. Beating up the vulnerable is Republican stock-in-trade here. Their base loves it.
