SUPERVISOR JORDAN, COMMISSIONER McCASKILL, AND STAFFERS DELIVER FOOD FOR HUNDREDS OF SNAP RECIPIENTS IN NEED OF FOOD
Rich Township Supervisor Calvin Jordan and Cook County Commissioner Kisha McCaskill led a mass group of volunteers and staffers in distributing food to hundreds of residents who mostly depended upon the recently downsized SNAP program. The giveaway was held at the Rich Township Food Pantry. The Supervisor and Commissioner publicly addressed the recent report of cuts in the federal food assistance program that has impacted 1.9 million Illinois residents who are facing tough economic times. As a result, massive lines included many who were SNAP program recipients.
