Should the Government BAN SODA from SNAP Benefits? | Ep 427

The U.S. stock market is bouncing back today after the tariff shock wore out and countries are coming to the table to make deals. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in town and shared his approach to President Trump's tariffs. SCOTUS sided with President Trump and his use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport dangerous criminals and illegal immigrants. With RFK Jr. leading the charge on Making Americans Healthy Again, Congressman Keith Self's FIZZ-NO Act is back in the spotlight. The FIZZ-NO Act would ban the purchase of soda with SNAP benefits. Rep. Self argues that they have no nutritional value and lead to obesity and other significant health issues. Is this a reasonable law to pass or is the government overreaching? Kevin Keane is the President & CEO of the American Beverage Association to discuss his side of the argument. While adult obesity rates are up around 37.4%, beverage calorie consumption is down 42%. Perhaps soda is not the culprit and maybe what SNAP users need is to be incentivized to make healthier choices.
