It seems as though the Republican Party is determined to separate itself from large voter groups as we head toward the 2024 election. The latest target is lower income families. Recently, 16 GOP-controlled states announced that they would not be accepting the FREE federally funded summer child food money from Washington. Any low income family who loses the $10/week/child benefit in those states and other states should react at the ballot box in November by voting anti-GOP. Another dis-connect–besides the voter loss–is the fact that all these states ban abortion. So the message to all is: we insist that the child be born by passing laws banning abortion–but don’t expect us to feed that child. If that inconsistency seems crazy–it’s because it is crazy. When asked for their reasoning, the GOP “brain trust” indicated that denying the kids food is their attempt to control childhood obesity. Yea–right!!!! Republican logic is a clear contradiction in terms.
