This is who Trump claims is the “worst of the worst” — a woman who has dedicated her life to educating and caring for children.

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.
Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.
