Republicans want to cut food assistance for 5 million low-income babies and parents

• The GOP's agriculture appropriations bill would mean major benefit cuts for WIC recipients.
• Low-income parents and babies are eligible to receive the benefit, which subsidizes food and care.
• If the GOP bill were passed, millions would see a benefit cut, especially to fruit and vegetable budgets.

As the GOP eyes spending priorities, one program that provides access to nutritious food and health screenings for low-income parents and babies might see major cuts.
