Even after the courts ruled that the administration must continue providing SNAP benefits, the Trump Administration is illegally withholding full emergency funds that could feed families in need – planning to slash the funds in half.
Maria is fighting back, joining every Senate Democrat in introducing a bill to stop the administration from cutting off grocery assistance for millions of Americans during this shutdown.
As a senior member of the Senate Finance Committee, Maria is calling out the administration’s decision to play politics with people’s lives. She’s fighting to ensure the USDA releases billions in available funds that are legally required to keep SNAP and WIC benefits flowing, because families can’t afford to wait.
If you agree with Maria that no one should go hungry because of political games, add your name to demand immediate protections for food assistance programs: [[link removed]]ADD YOUR NAME [[link removed]]
In Washington alone, over 900,000 residents depend on SNAP – including families with children, older adults, and people with disabilities. And more than 200,000 Washingtonians rely on WIC benefits to ensure mothers and infants have access to healthy food.
We can’t let Trump continue to endanger the health and dignity of millions of Americans. Join Maria in demanding action: protect funding for food assistance now. [[link removed]]ADD YOUR NAME [[link removed]]
Thank you for standing with Maria and the families who need these vital programs most.
