Government Monday, November 12, 2012 Cutbacks are expected for food stamp recipients Federal government has denied Ohio official's requests to reverse planned cutbacks. by WKSU's STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT BILL COHEN |
 Reporter Bill Cohen | | |
Eight-hundred and sixty-nine thousand Ohio households currently get food stamps, but some of those families are about to see their allotment cut. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen reports. |
Some Ohio food stamp recipients whose allotments are based on utility costs are facing a cut in assistance of $50 every month.
“As we calculate the cost of utilities, the average price has gone down primarily because we had a mild winter and because the price of natural gas has dropped,” says Ben Johnson, an Ohio Jobs and Family Services spokesman.
Johnson says Ohio officials asked the federal government to mute the food stamps cutbacks on Ohio families, but the requests were denied. The cutbacks are being made across the country.
Officials at Ohio food banks are worried that the food stamp cut will mean even more families coming to local food pantries. |
