Trump, USDA cuts 553,000 pounds of food for Greater Cleveland Food Bank: ‘Complete disappointment’

CLEVELAND, Ohio – The shelves of the Greater Cleveland Food Bank will be emptier after the U.S. Department of Agriculture quietly canceled 553,000 pounds of food that was expected to help those facing food insecurity.

The food bank learned on Tuesday that it is a victim once again of funding cuts under the Trump administration. Twenty semi-truck loads of food, worth $1 million, from the Emergency Food Assistance Program have been canceled.
