The SNAP freeze isn't JUST about the shutdown. This year's Republican budget bill—the "Big, Beautiful Bill"—included a $186B cut to SNAP.
It was one of many programs, including Medicaid, that got budget reductions to pay for Republican tax cuts.

@joshsteinnc.bsky.social deserves a better legislature. Buckle up to flip some seats in 2026!
North Carolinians are facing a health care crisis because the legislature has not adequately funded Medicaid. That’s why I’m calling an extra session for the General Assembly to get back to work and fund North Carolina’s Medicaid program.

The General Assembly plans to come back next week to shamelessly and unfairly redraw Congressional maps. Here’s what they should be doing instead:
Passing state budget
Fully funding Medicaid
Increasing law enforcement pay
Giving teachers a pay raise

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.
The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!
