ACTION ALERT:
DOUBLE UP FOOD BUCKS
Double Up Food Bucks, also known locally as “DA BUX,” provides a dollar-for-dollar match on fresh, locally-grown produce for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participants. This program is a “triple win” for Hawai‘i: making healthy food more accessible for families in need, supporting agriculture and farmers, and keeping money within the local economy.
You can use the same testimony as last time, but it does matter that you submit testimony for every hearing! Each committee has different lawmakers, who may be new to the issue and need to hear from you.
