Call to Action: Support LB843 to Improve Access to SNAP

The Nebraska Legislature is considering LB843, that requires the Department of Health and Human Services to file a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program waiver for refugees and immigrants. This waiver is crucial to prevent eligibility changes enacted in recent federal law from reducing access to nutrition aid for vulnerable Nebraskans.

Food security is a fundamental need and a basic measure of community health and economic stability. LB 843 would help ensure that all residents, including those rebuilding their lives in our state, have access to adequate nutrition.

Hearing Information:

LB843 will be heard by the Health and Human Services Committee on February 19 in room 1510 at 1:30 PM.


Here’s what you can do:

  • Contact your Nebraska State Senator today and support LB843.
  • If you can, attend the hearing scheduled for February 19th at 1:30 PM
  • Share this alert with friends, neighbors, and community groups.
