Liz Wills-O'Gilvie's Hunger Protest | Lincoln News

Sixty-three-year-old Liz Wills-OGilvie, a veteran food insecurity advocate and director of a food bank, is fasting for 15 days to force Governor Maura Healey’s hand on SNAP funding—her own hunger protest spotlighting how millions in Massachusetts are forced to choose between food and rent as state aid shrinks. With over 3.1 million SNAP applicants in MA alone in 2022—and nationwide demand soaring—her sacrifice isn’t just personal; it’s a rallying cry for urgent policy change. Despite past conversations with the governor, Wills-O’Gilvie insists concrete action is needed now to ensure no one goes hungry.
