Twenty-eight Democratic senators joined all voting Republicans in putting corporate welfare for a handful of crop insurance companies ahead of low-income families struggling to make ends meet, by voting down this amendment. As House Republicans push even more draconian cuts to food stamps, now is the time to take a stand.
