At the end of October, 850,000 Ohio households could find themselves with less to spend on food when SNAP loses some of its funding. In addition, House Republicans have proposed legislation shaving another $40 billion from the program. This hour we'll talk about food assistance, get an update on the Farm Bill, and discuss how best to keep all Ohioans fed.
