WATCH: Rep. Brandon Gill DESTROYS Liberal “Anti-Hunger” Advocate During SNAP Abuse Hearing, Leaves Her Spinning After Asking if SNAP Should be Spent on Sugary Soda
During a House Oversight Delivering on Government Efficiency Subcommittee hearing titled “Combating Waste, Fraud, and Abuse in SNAP,” the Texas Republican asked one simple question: “Should SNAP dollars be spent on sodas?”Plata-Nino is the Director of SNAP Policy and Advocacy at the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC), a so-called “anti-hunger” advocacy organization, and she couldn’t even answer the question.
After initially refusing to, in her words, “dictate what Americans should or should not eat or may have access to,” the free food and soda advocate suggested that people need soda “to survive.” When asked to clarify, she said “some of them do,” claiming that people with low blood sugar or kidney issues need to drink soda.
