SNAP recipients have to recertify every 6months-1 year. To reapply is a lot of work and Trump’s goons get to decide who can and can’t survive without food benefits? This is absurd. 😞

Trump administration will require SNAP participants to reapply for benefits
The move is part of USDA chief Brooke Rollins’ effort to overhaul the nation’s largest anti-hunger program and get rid of “fraud.”

I’ve been volunteering at my granddaughter’s school for 3 years. Twice a month the school has a food pantry for the residents in the district. We usually have enough for all families in need. Yesterday, we ran out of food in under 30 minutes. 😢

Are you one of the many people impacted by the MAGA NAZI Republicans stopping your SNAP benefits?
Do you need a hand up?
Many do and no one should ever feel bad about needing the help, especially if you have kids.

#BREAKING: Justice Jackson has issued an "administrative" stay, temporarily pausing a district court order that would've required the USDA to continue using contingency funds to pay SNAP benefits.
The stay expires 48 hours after the First Circuit rules on USDA's request for a stay pending appeal.

It was a great Election Day for the most part. I’m disappointed in my district. The Levy didn’t pass for my grandchildren’s school district. They haven’t had their funding increased in over 12 years. 😢
