Puerto Rican Scholarship Fund Tee
![By this Friday, Congress will be deciding whether Puerto Rico will run out of disaster nutrition assistance funds on March 1st. ⠀
⠀
This will happen if Congress does not add $600M as part of a disaster assistance package expected to be included in the final package. Puerto Rico is not part of the SNAP program – it receives capped federal food aid through its inadequate Nutrition Assistance Program. ⠀
⠀
Hurricane Maria’s devastation added to long-term poverty in Puerto Rico given the loss of jobs and homes. The House bill includes this funding; so far the Senate has not. We need you to call Congress to advocate for the $600M for nutrition assistance funds. You can make a real difference for Puerto Rico. ⠀
Message:⠀
⠀
Hi, my name is XX and I am from XX. I am calling because I support Puerto Rico receiving additional nutrition assistance funds this year. I want [Senator/Representative Name] to ensure that $600M for NAP funds is included in HJ Res. 31 this week and that he/she votes YES for Puerto Rico aid.⠀
