Economy and Business Friday, July 20, 2012 Advocates for low-income Ohioans worry about impacts of storms and drought Food lost in the recent storms and higher food prices due to the drought are putting pressure on low-income Ohioans by WKSU's STATEHOUSE BUREAU CHIEF KAREN KASLER |
 Reporter Karen Kasler | | |
| Advocates who work with low-income Ohioans are encouraged by good unemployment numbers, but say the populations they serve are suffering seriously right now. Many poor people lost food in the storms three weeks ago. Now the nation is facing higher food prices because of the drought. Lisa Hamler-Fugitt with the Ohio Association of Food Banks says the combination of the storms, the drought and possible cuts to the food stamp program in the Farm Bill are setting up a catastrophic scenario. |
| Hamler-Fugitt says food banks lost food in the power outages, but some had generators, and others were able to move frozen food into cold storage units elsewhere. And though the state did offer provide additional food stamp benefits to recipients in the 34 hardest-hit counties, some low-income people found themselves temporarily without paychecks because their employers didn’t have power. |
