Connections: Discussing the impact of an overhaul of the SNAP program

The Trump administration is planning to overhaul the food stamps program, known as SNAP. Republicans point to several high-profile fraud cases, despite the low overall rate of fraud in the SNAP system. The result, according to the administration, will be the removal of more than three million people from the SNAP benefit program.

Our guests discuss the impacts:
