What’s the matter with Iowa? Kimmi the Clown tells low-income kids they can starve

 
Headline:  Des Moines Register, 12/22/2023
"Federal COVID-era cash benefit programs are not sustainable and don’t provide long-term solutions for the issues impacting children and families. An EBT card does nothing to promote nutrition at a time when childhood obesity has become an epidemic," Gov. Kim Reynolds said in the news release. 
Iowa would be asked to pay $2.2 million to cover half of the administrative costs, the news release said. The state had a $1.83 billion budget surplus from last fiscal year[emphasis added]
