Show Notes
Thousands of California immigrants, including refugees and asylees, are losing CalFresh food benefits due to HR One, a bill that slashes aid for certain noncitizens. The changes target refugees, trafficking victims, asylees, and even Iraqis and Afghans with special immigrant visas. Resettlement groups call it a broken promise, as these are people the country invited for refuge and authorized to work. State officials say those currently receiving benefits keep them until renewal, but the cuts are causing immediate upheaval and forcing families to scramble.
