Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Many people in Cal. got their SNAP benefits on Fri. They’ve had 3 days to shop & fill their pantries over the weekend. People will have spent much of their funds. The Admin. wants states to “undo” that. How? They want to claw back needed funds from desperate people who have been hungry? Ghouls.
The US Department of Agriculture has ordered that "states must immediately undo any steps taken to issue full SNAP benefits for November 2025".

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Between this miserly horror & the real looming crisis of SNAP benefits likely not going out in November- the most needy in our communities will be devastated & hungry. Please donate to your local food bank if you can and call your members of congress to press them on the urgency.
Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.
