Remember when you met with us- @littlelobbyists.com ? I sat next to you as you spoke with a table filled with our children as you promised us that you were behind us every step of the way
Voting with them is a clear vote against the very children you promised to their faces you would protect.

DO NOT VOTE WITH THE REPUBLICANS.
Their promises mean nothing and they have made it clear they want to destroy the families of America- primarily those who belong to disabled and minority groups.
This would be a vote to destroy the only lifelines families like ours have.

Healthcare, food, and housing are not negotiable. Any "guarantee" from people who think they are is a lie.
Deal or no deal: Republicans WILL cut our healthcare.

What's happening with SNAP is incredibly uncertain and I'm hearing from comrades all over who are struggling, confused, and getting mixed messages about their bennies. I wrote about how SNAP affects families with medically complex children who use SNAP/WIC at @civileats.com!
Op-ed: The Shutdown Threatens SNAP and WIC for the Most Vulnerable
One in eight Americans rely on food assistance. For families with complex medical challenges, these programs are non-negotiable lifelines.

Just so we are keeping track
They CUT #Medicaid after (falsely) saying the program riddled w/ “fraud, waste, and abuse”
Rural hospital, medically complex children, & families are seeing the impact TODAY
Now they’re saying SNAP is “extremely corrupt”
Why do they love punishing American families?
