WASHINGTON, DC \u2014 El senador estadounidense de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, anunci\u00f3 hoy la expansi\u00f3n de un programa piloto que permitir\u00e1 a los beneficiarios del Programa de Asistencia Nutricional Suplementaria (SNAP) en Oreg\u00f3n usar sus beneficios para comprar alimentos en l\u00ednea de Amazon y Walmart. El programa es administrado por el Servicio de Alimentos y Nutrici\u00f3n (FNS) del Departamento de Agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA).<\/p>\n

Merkley se desempe\u00f1a como el principal dem\u00f3crata en el subcomit\u00e9 de financiaci\u00f3n que supervisa el USDA.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cPara cientos de miles de residentes de Oreg\u00f3n, los beneficios de SNAP son la diferencia entre poder comprar alimentos o irse a la cama con hambre\u201d, dijo Merkley<\/b>. \u201cPero entre coordinar el transporte, trabajar en varios trabajos y quedarse en casa para cuidar a sus seres queridos, acceder a una tienda de comestibles puede ser un gran desaf\u00edo, especialmente dada la falta de tiendas de comestibles de servicio completo en tantos vecindarios de bajos ingresos. Este programa piloto probar\u00e1 una forma innovadora de superar ese problema, para ayudar a m\u00e1s familias a mantener la comida en sus mesas\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Oreg\u00f3n es el duod\u00e9cimo estado m\u00e1s hambriento de Estados Unidos, con m\u00e1s de 600\u00a0000 beneficiarios de SNAP e innumerables desiertos alimentarios: \u00e1reas urbanas donde los residentes tienen que viajar m\u00e1s de una milla para acceder a una tienda de comestibles o \u00e1reas rurales donde los residentes tienen que viajar m\u00e1s de 10 millas, muchas de las cuales est\u00e1n ubicados en comunidades rurales y de bajos ingresos.<\/p>\n

Programa piloto de la FNS<\/a>, que est\u00e1 dise\u00f1ado para probar la viabilidad de las transacciones SNAP en l\u00ednea en todo el pa\u00eds, se lanz\u00f3 en abril de 2019 en Nueva York.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
