Las Vegas Mayor Living On Food Stamps

Jan 27, 2012 5:22pm

Carolyn Goodman may be the only mayor in the United States on food stamps, but it’s only temporary. Goodman is taking part in a local food bank’s challenge to live on $4.06 per day– the amount a single person who qualifies for food stamps receives.

“I didn’t get to put any fruit on my meal plan this week. And, there’s not much variety in my vegetables. It’s a good thing that I love tomato soup!” Goodman blogged on the SNAP Experience Blog.
