Louisiana House Speaker Mike Johnson's district relies heavily on anti-poverty programs.

In his district, 25% of adults under the age of 65 rely on Medicaid and 20% of households receive food snaps.

The House speaker's office says he's committed to preserving Medicaid benefits for those who desperately need it.

Cars lined up around the block to collect baskets of produce, bread, meat and other donated goods.

“Some people couldn’t survive or make it without these resources. And medicine, let’s not talk about that,” Angel Lejune said.
