"bring his message of healthy food"
"One idea is letting people use food stamps to pay for gun shells and other hunting equipment."
Bobby Junior traveled to Alaska to bring his message of healthy food. A policy proposal surfaced that would permit food stamp recipients to use benefits to buy gun shells and other hunting equipment. The proposal frames hunting and firearms as a pathway to obtaining food under nutrition assistance programs. The idea raises ethical and public-health concerns by linking welfare benefits to weapons access and hunting supply purchases. The measure provokes debate over the appropriate scope of assistance, the role of hunting in food access, and potential social and safety implications of expanding allowable uses for food benefits.
