Y'all, this is urgent.
Starting this weekend, 3.5 million Texans — including 1.7 million children — are about to lose their SNAP benefits because of the federal shutdown. That’s food on the table for working families, seniors, and kids — gone. And Governor Greg Abbott? He’s doing absolutely nothing.
Democratic lawmakers are demanding action — urging Abbott to use his emergency powers to keep Texans fed, just like he’s done before during disasters and crises. Other governors — including Republicans — have already stepped up.

But Abbott’s response? He shrugged, blamed Democrats in Congress, and told hungry Texans to call 2-1-1.
Let’s be clear: No Texan should go hungry because politicians in D.C. or Austin are playing games. This isn’t about politics — it’s about leadership. And once again, Abbott’s showing he doesn’t have any. Democrats across Texas are fighting for real solutions: emergency funding, food bank support, and pressure on the USDA to release relief funds. While Abbott hides behind excuses, Texas Democrats are showing what leadership looks like. Texas Majority PAC is working every day to elect leaders who will fight for working families — not turn their backs on them. But right now, we need your help to keep that fight going strong. Will you chip in tonight to help us hold Abbott accountable and elect leaders who actually care about Texans? |
Abbott’s failure to act will leave millions of Texans in crisis. Let’s make sure this moment becomes a turning point — when we stood up, fought back, and said never again.
Together, we can build a Texas where no family has to worry about feeding their kids while politicians point fingers. In the fight, Texas Majority PAC |
