The 2013 cartoon depicts House Republicans on a bridge labeled with their name, an elephant figure pointing downward while declaring one side reserved for the poor and the other for the middle class. Below, a family sits with a sign reading Food Stamp Cuts near a waterway and city skyline. The image responds to ongoing congressional negotiations over the farm bill that included reductions to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Republicans argued the changes would promote work requirements and reduce fraud. Critics said the cuts would increase hunger among low-income households. The visual uses the bridge as a metaphor for divided priorities in the legislation.
