Fort Bend Seniors Meals on Wheels voices concerns over federal funding

The Houston-area nonprofit receives more than a third of its annual budget from the Older Americans Act, which expired last year. Congress has yet to renew this legislation, opting instead for a one-year resolution that temporarily funds the programs included in the act.

Quote by mpu:
"Mar 3, 2025
Donald Trump and Elon Musk have thrown Meals on Wheels funding into chaos.
The program doesn't just provide food for seniors, it also provides community, check-ins on the elderly living alone, and more.
Now, it's all in jeopardy."
