Speaker Johnson’s current argument is “we are going to withhold SNAP benefits unless Democrats let us massively increase health care costs.”
His orders from Trump are clear: enrich Trump’s family and billionaire donors by kicking millions off of Medicaid and stripping food assistance from children.

For weeks, I’ve been demanding the Trump administration use contingency funding for critical SNAP benefits that keep families fed.
Now, the courts are requiring it. To Donald Trump and Republicans: get back to work and stop messing with Americans’ lives.
