Support AB 1049 (Rodriguez) as it heads to Assembly Human Services!

Published on Mar 27, 2025 in CalFresh, Food4All, Immigrants

In February 2025, the Food4All campaign introduced AB 1049 (Rodriguez) to remove a discriminatory rule called sponsor deeming from the California Food Assistance Program (CFAP) so that immigrant Californians seeking food benefits face fewer barriers in getting the support they need to meet their food needs. Now we need your help to make sure this bill makes it through Assembly Human Services.
