Rollins: There is a contingency fund at usda—it is only allowed to flow if the underlying program is funded. It is called a contingency fund. By law, contingency fund can only flow when the underlying fund is flowing. Johnson: The Democrats are lying.

Donald Trump's refusal to fund SNAP is heartless. He thinks 42 million Americans don’t deserve to eat this November. But the law, his own shutdown guidance, and past practice dictate that USDA use contingency to cover regular benefits.

There is a contingency fund that Trump and his lapdogs in Congress have claimed has run dry. That is a lie. There is up to $6 billion in that fund to provide SNAP/CalFresh benefits during shutdowns. Republicans are playing politics.

Johnson: When it comes to snap, Democrats have argued you can use this contingency fund but the truth is there is no legal mechanism to do it… The president has lamented this.

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.

Rep. Craig: We have over $5 billion in a contingency fund for SNAP. Until last week, the USDA website itself said that this money could be used during a government shutdown. They also have the authority to move other money around and pay November's SNAP benefits. It's illegal, it's immoral, and it's probably one of the most cruel things we've seen out of this administration so far.

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.

KAROLINE LEAVITT on SNAP funding: “We are digging into a contingency fund that is supposed to be for emergencies, catastrophes, for war.” "The best way to get the full amount of SNAP benefits to those beneficiaries is for Democrats to reopen the government."

President Trump is choosing to starve Americans during this shutdown instead of using the emergency funds his own USDA said could fund SNAP benefits through November. Angie Craig and I are fighting back. If he wanted to, he would.

Mike Johnson: "President Trump has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that if there is any way to fund these programs that are drying up, he will do it. If there was any way to fund SNAP during the Democratic shutdown, you can be assured that your commander in chief would do it."

This CNN panel desperately tried to demonize Trump's admin for "starving children" by not funding SNAP. Their argument collapsed when they misrepresented the SNAP contingency fund judges forced Trump to spend. Scott Jennings nailed it: "That is literally a king, spending money that is not appropriated." The "rainy day" fund? Real, but not a blank check: - Prior appropriations aren't for routine monthly benefits during a partisan shutdown. - USDA: Reserve for true emergencies (e.g., hurricanes), not bypassing Congress on $8B+ Nov. needs. - Forcing release via judges (Oct. 31 rulings) overrides the power of the purse, as Jennings warned. - Even in 2018-19, USDA used it for limited months under prior CR authority, not as a full override. Dems blocked CRs, then demanded Trump spend anyway. Their "suffering tactic" failed when 8 of their own broke ranks to end the shutdown. Trump didn’t starve anyone. Dems gambled with food stamps for politics.

Sen. Merkley: It's using food as a weapon against America's most vulnerable families. Congress said this should never happen, so we created a contingency fund. That fund has $5 billion in it. And now Trump is saying, 'I am going to attack the health and welfare of America's most vulnerable families as a negotiating tactic.'

Americans are going hungry because Trump would rather throw a Great Gatsby gala than release the SNAP contingency fund to help families meet their basic needs. We know that’s the law because we passed it. California is fighting back: a BIG VOTE yes on prop 50 is how we start.

I sued the federal government to demand they use available funds to continue SNAP benefits during the shutdown — and we won. But here’s the problem: USDA said they will only fund half the program, and following their plan could take months to drive those dollars out — leaving millions without the assistance they need. And just now, Trump said he intentionally won’t send out SNAP payments until the federal shutdown ends. The Trump Administration has the money and the ability to fund SNAP and help hardworking folks put food on the table — they’d just rather play politics with people’s lives.
