Republicans never cared about SNAP — if they did, they wouldn't have slashed $187 billion in food assistance with their Big Ugly Law. As a federal judge just found, Trump is breaking the law by blocking food for millions of Americans. Here's exactly what is going on with SNAP:

Republicans cut food assistance by $187 BILLION so they could give tax breaks to billionaires. The reality is, they don't believe in fighting hunger. Well, I do. It impacts millions of Americans across the country, urban and rural. We must protect SNAP.

Congressional Republicans have targeted SNAP for years, finally cutting billions from the program in the “One Big Beautiful Bill”. With food banks already facing stresses due to the GOP shutdown, Trump is now completely defunding SNAP creating a crisis for millions of Americans families.

SNAP and food assistance is personal to me. The President is choosing to starve millions of Americans while his policies raise prices on all of us. Food should never be a political weapon.

It's not enough for Trump to only fund half of SNAP benefits in November. Families need ALL of their food assistance and they need it NOW. Trump must fully fund SNAP and Republicans must reopen the government.

Republicans suddenly want to “negotiate” on a Farm Bill—AFTER they screwed over millions of regular people by gutting food assistance? Hell no! Democrats aren’t going to be a cheap date this time. We should not dignify this phony BS until they REVERSE the massive cuts to food assistance they jammed through in their big ugly bill.

Republicans already gutted $186 billion from SNAP in the Big Ugly Bill. Now the Trump Administration is doubling down, letting 42 million Americans go hungry while they can prevent it.

Donald Trump is treating 42 million Americans, who depend on SNAP for their survival, as bargaining chips in his sick political game of extortion. SNAP is not a ransom note but a right. Americans have a legal right to put food on the table and feed their families.

Food banks like the LA Regional Food Bank are urgently preparing for an influx of people seeking food assistance as the Trump Administration unlawfully allows SNAP benefits to lapse. We’re suing to force President Trump and USDA to use funds they have to cover SNAP benefits in November. We won’t sit idly by as Californians go hungry.

Democrats have blocked SNAP food assistance for 42 million Americans 13 times. On Saturday, funding runs out completely, and families nationwide will go hungry. In their words, they did it to increase their political “leverage.”

When Republicans passed their Big Bad Betrayal Bill, they kicked millions of Americans off of their health care and slashed SNAP funding for hungry families — meaning millions will get poorer and sicker. This should not be how we live in the richest country in the world.
