Just when you thought the Trump Administration couldn’t go any lower. They are doing everything they can to delay and stop food assistance to Americans in need.
The Administration must follow the law, fully pay benefits, and stop weaponizing hunger during a Republican shutdown.

House Republicans need to come back from their vacations and have a real conversation with Democrats to reopen the government.

We’ve still had no oversight hearings, no classified briefings, and no legal justification for this Administration's boat strikes.
It is completely a dereliction of duty for Republicans to not convene at all and be on vacation during this shutdown.

Trump is now saying he will only pay SNAP benefits once the Republican shutdown is over, despite a federal court order.
As a result, 42 million kids, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities could go hungry. This is illegal, immoral, and absolutely cruel.

It was already bad enough that Republicans cut billions from SNAP in their Big Ugly Bill.
Now they’re refusing to use legally available funds to pay benefits in November. Republicans need to stop playing politics with hunger.
