OBBBA = "Betrayal of Trust"

Gina Cornia of Utahns Against Hunger has a few words to say about the passage of the OBBBA last week. "Utahns Against Hunger is deeply disappointed in the passage of the budget reconciliation bill. More Utahns will experience hunger and food insecurity because of the SNAP provisions. We will hold our congressional delegation accountable for their support of these cruel and unnecessary changes."

RadioACTive Pop finds common ground on pop culture, politics and DEI's last stand with Will Terry of the Salt Lake Human Rights Commission. He's also the Political Action Committee Manager at Equality Utah, which works to achieve full legal equality for LGBTQ Utahns under state civil law.
