Original Note:
Meals On Wheels is not a federal program. The proposed streamlining at HHS does not mean MOW is being eliminated. This claim, circulating since Trump’s first term, is simply designed to provoke emotional outrage. Also important to note, the CEO of MOW makes $600k a year. https://www.salary.com/research/company/meals-wheels/chief-executive-officer-salary?cjid=13371053 https://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/mick-mulvaney-donald-trump-budget-meals-on-wheels-236144 https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/03/20/520848721/could-meals-on-wheels-really-lose-funding-yes-but-its-hard-to-say-how-much
