The Muscogee, Chickasaw and Cherokee nations have partnered with the United States Department of Agriculture and the nonprofit Hunger Free Oklahoma to pool together $16 million from their organizations and matching grants as a stand-in for the EBT program. Both Native and non-Native children are eligible for the program.

They are standing up for the community (again) after the Governor has failed the state (yet again).
