✍️ A food aid program for low-income mothers and young children, WIC, is at risk of running out of federal funds due to the government shutdown, potentially affecting over 6 million people.
👉 WIC provides essential nutrients to low-income households, including infant formula, fresh fruits and vegetables, and low-fat milk. 👉 The program is at risk of running out of federal funds due to the government shutdown. 👉 States may need to use their own funds to keep the program running, but not all can afford to do so. 👉 The program's funding is crucial for the health and well-being of over 6 million people, including pregnant women, mothers, and children under 5.
