#AB1049 will help more low-income immigrant families in California get the food assistance they need by removing a complicated rule called sponsor deeming. #Food4All means no exceptions, no exclusions, no delays.

The #Food4All coalition is advocating for Asm Rodriguez‘s #AB1049 to remove the sponsor deeming rule from CFAP. It is an unnecessary rule that creates additional barriers for families when they need food benefits the most.
