EVERETT — February and March were among the busiest for the Volunteers of America of Western Washington Everett food bank.

Those two months had the fifth- and fourth-highest individual visits ever at the weekly food bank at 1230 Broadway. They only trailed the first three months of the COVID-19 pandemic when unemployment spiked in light of stay-home orders that resulted in widespread job losses.

Food banks and other nutrition assistance programs could be even busier this summer. Rental assistance funding will dry up by July.

A bill narrowly approved by U.S. House Republicans could slash food assistance program dollars, said Rep. Suzan DelBene, D-Medina, during a visit to the food bank Monday. Republican leaders presented it as a cost-cutting bill to avert hitting the debt ceiling.
