SB 464 — Food4All Passes Senate Appropriations!
Published on May 20, 2021 in CalFresh, Immigrants, State Legislation
Today, SB 464 (Hurtado)—Food4All passed out of Senate Appropriations and will now move on to the Senate Floor. We are pleased that this brings us one step closer to ending the unjust immigrant exclusion in CalFresh
We applaud Senator Hurtado for her leadership on Food4All (ComidaParaTodos) and her commitment to creating an equitable nutrition safety net available to all Californians who need help putting food on the table. We would also like to thank our cosponsors, California Immigrant Policy Center, for their ongoing partnership and dedication to this campaign.
We owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to our Food4All Coalition partners and supporters who met with their legislators, hosted events, made calls, sent emails, and more to express support and educate policymakers about the need to enact Food4All. Thank you for your support and advocacy.
We now have a crucial opportunity to enact Food4All through the state budget. State leaders will make final budget decisions over the next few weeks. They need to hear from you that the state should prioritize Food4All and include it in the final budget package.
