House Republicans talk a lot about family values, but this budget cruelly and needlessly hurts families and children. It will make life harder for tens of millions of hard-working American families all to serve an ideological agenda. At a time of stagnant wages and rising income inequality, the House Republican budget is more of the same\u2014cutting nutrition assistance, health care, job training, and college aid\u2014all while giving another tax break to the wealthiest few. Instead of further dividing this country, Republican leaders and Congress must go back to the drawing board and pass a budget that invests in the future of working and middle class families. Make no mistake, we strongly oppose this proposal and urge the President to make clear he will veto it and any other extreme budget that hurts America\u2019s families.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufcw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Marc-Perrone-2008.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13561\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufcw.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Marc-Perrone-2008.jpg\" alt=\"Marc-Perrone-2008\" width=\"700\" height=\"403\" \/><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, D.C.\u2014Marc Perrone, International President of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW), today released the following statement in response to passage of the House Republican budget. \u201cBudgets are more than just numbers; they are a statement of values.
