Eye On Oshkosh - State Rep Lori Palmeri discusses state issues, taped 11-6-2025

On the most recent edition of Eye on Oshkosh, host Cheryl Hentz welcomes Wisconsin State Assemblywoman from the 54th Assembly District Lori Palmeri. During the hour, Palmeri gave important updates on the SNAP / FoodShare program and other efforts being made to help those in need of finding food to feed themselves and their families. That includes a grassroots food drive effort she is working on with the Greater Oshkosh Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative and others in the community. 

Between November 3 and November 14, food donations may be dropped off at the Healthy Neighborhoods office located at 135 Church Ave., just a few doors down from City Hall, during their hours of Monday-Thursday 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. Palmeri’s office has also coordinated with the Oshkosh Area Community Food Pantry so they can open outside of their normal hours on Saturday, Nov. 8 and Saturday, Nov. 22 from 10 am to 2 pm. 

Hentz and Palmeri also discussed housing issues, mostly those related to folks with moderate to low income, the Affordable Care Act and the effect the federal government shutdown has on it, and the recent election, among many other things. It’s a very informative hour. The show can be seen here or by following this link: https://youtu.be/jUu2z4-CyH4.
