Tom Collins receives about $280 a month in SNAP benefits.

“If SNAP went away, it would be very inconvenient,” he said. “I would have to fight at food pantries for food. And it would be a fight, because there’s a lot of people dependent on SNAP.”
Oregonians have access to full November food stamp benefits, Kotek says
All Oregonians will get their full monthly benefit now, the governor said, even if they typically get the benefits on a different schedule.

Best culture, best newsroom of anywhere I've worked. I love the living shit out of these folks, and they don't deserve to be negatively impacted by a decision that was made by the parent company, not them. And it's only $2 a month.

Secretary Noem appeared on the upper roof of the Portland ICE facility, surrounded by a small entourage of video recording staff. Then she left the roof. Multiple reports suggest that was her, way up on the roof.
