GOP Measure Would Deny Food Stamps for Workplace Strikes 
---------------------------------------------------------



A group of House Republicans is quietly pushing a measure that would
deny food stamps to any household with a family member involved in a
workplace strike. According to the website, Think Progress, House
Resolution 1135 would bar food stamps to any family where one adult
member is involved in a strike against an employer.
