For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes.
If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better.
This is why we’ve launched the largest primary program that we’ve ever run.

According to Ulster County Executive Jen Metzger, the first New Yorkers who depend on #SNAP received their benefit this morning with all EBT cards replenished in less than a week.
I've just directed state agencies to fully fund federal SNAP benefits for November.
President Trump's actions have been senseless and un-American. I'll never stop fighting for New York's families.

In addition to law-abiding friends and neighbors, there is clear evidence that US citizens are also being cruelly and unlawfully treated. Know your rights, speak up, support each other and those who call out the lies.
Donald Trump said ICE raids haven't gone far enough.
Kristi Noem said no citizens have been detained in these raids.
But we know the truth. Because we have story after heartbreaking story that proves otherwise.
Listen to these brave Americans in their own words.

It’s illegal and cruel that our law-abiding friends and neighbors have been detained, disappeared and unlawfully deported. As the saying goes, they are coming for all of us. Know your rights (ACLU has virtual trainings) and consider this clear and simple guidance below. Stay safe.

The Trump administration has a rainy day fund that will keep SNAP from expiring in November. Trump is refusing to use it.
Funding SNAP isn't a choice he can make. It's a legal obligation. USDA must release the funds and stop punishing the American people.
