摘要：USDA administers the
Nation¡¯s major domestic
food-assistance programs
(see box on domestic food-assistance
programs). These programs, which
served an estimated 1 in 6 Americans
in fiscal 1996, provide a nutritional
safety net to people in need.
Spending on these programs accounted
for about 70 percent of
USDA¡¯s total budget. Recent welfare
legislation will have significant
impacts on costs of and participation
in food-assistance programs.
