Congress set aside emergency SNAP funds for times like this, but Trump is choosing to withhold food help our kids, seniors and veterans count on. His cruelty is repulsive.

Congress set aside contingency funds specifically for SNAP food benefits during government shutdowns. California won't sit by while the Trump Administration ignores yet another law.

1 in 4 kids rely on SNAP food assistance benefits. Those children will go hungry this November because Republicans shut down the government and Trump refuses to use contingency funds to keep this program running.

Letting people go hungry in this shutdown is a choice Trump is intentionally making. He could tell the USDA to use contingency funds to ensure families get their SNAP benefits on November 1st, he’s just choosing not to.

In every city and town in every state, SNAP feeds seniors, kids, veterans, and people with disabilities. They’re the ones paying the price while Donald Trump blocks food assistance. It’s time for the President and Republicans in Congress to do their job.

This is why ensuring families have access to SNAP is an emergency situation. ⬇️ SNAP provides about $6 a day for food—which is just enough to help keep families from going hungry, but never enough to get ahead. If funds don’t go out this weekend, millions of kids, seniors, families, and people with disabilities will wake up Saturday without money for groceries. This crisis can be averted. Trump’s USDA must release contingency funds already approved by Congress to every single state!

Elizabeth Warren: “Donald Trump is trying to figure out how to make more people hurt more. Never before in a shutdown has there been any interruption of SNAP benefits. Democrats care about hungry kids and hungry veterans and hungry seniors. But Donald Trump sure as hell doesn’t”

President Trump is blocking 1.2 million veterans from getting the SNAP benefits they need so they don’t go hungry. It's disgraceful—and we all need to speak out to make this administration get out the SNAP benefits people need and rely on.

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.

Vance on a federal judge ordering the Trump administration to use emergency contingency funds to partially pay SNAP benefits: "It's an absurd ruling...In the midst of a shutdown, we can't have a federal court telling the president how he has to triage the situation."

Trump must use emergency contingency funds & other revenues to fully cover SNAP benefits, not play politics with hunger in America. He said he’d obey court “direction.” Now he’s defying two courts.

This Saturday, 900,000 Arizonans–including over 367,000 kids–will lose food assistance because of Trump’s cruelty. Republicans are choosing to let children, seniors, and people with disabilities go hungry. We won’t. We’re fighting to restore SNAP now.

The Trump Administration had no problem cutting the budget for kids with developmental disabilities and instead increasing funds for his private plane. The most corrupt administration in our history.

The Trump Administration can use funds to buy two luxury jets for Noem during their government shutdown but they can’t use emergency funding to feed hungry children. The hypocrisy. What they’re doing is cruel and unacceptable. They can and they must fund SNAP for November.

🚨 BREAKING: Democrats are now forcing President Trump to use WAR-TIME FUNDS to keep SNAP benefits running. These funds are meant for national emergencies and full-scale war, not for covering up Democrat failures. “We’re digging into a contingency fund meant for catastrophes and WAR. The president doesn’t want to tap it again.” Schumer and his gang are holding food aid hostage — just to score political points. DISGUSTING.

Trump is focused on giving a $40 billion bailout to Argentina, not the over 40 million kids, seniors, and people with disabilities who rely on SNAP. Republicans are focused on the wrong 40.

In the Army, we pledge to leave no one behind. Trump is CHOOSING to leave 42 million Americans behind – letting kids, veterans, and seniors go hungry. I’m asking every American to demand the President release SNAP funding immediately.

🚨 JUST IN: In an infuriating development, President Trump is now being forced by Democrats to use WAR-TIME FUNDING for some SNAP benefits These are funds meant for full-on catastrophes, national emergencies and WAR.

"Anyone who needs that assistance...DEMOCRATS are holding it up and making it difficult to get those payments out the door!" DISGUSTING, Chuck Schumer.
