Text SIGN PFNGWA to 50409 — The ongoing government shutdown is causing unnecessary harm to vital public services and the American people. I’m deeply concerned about the unprecedented actions being taken by the current regime, particularly regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). These actions go beyond what is required during a shutdown and appear to be politically and racially motivated. During previous shutdowns, essential programs like SNAP continued to operate normally, because there are procedures for that. However, the current regime is withholding funding and canceling previously approved grants for various programs, including those that provide food assistance to vulnerable populations. This approach is not only unnecessary but potentially illegal. The impact of these actions on SNAP recipients could be devastating. Millions of low-income families, children, elderly, and disabled individuals rely on SNAP to put food on their tables. Any disruption to this program could lead to increased hunger and malnutrition in our communities. I urge you to take immediate action to protect SNAP funding. Specifically, I request that you: 1. Work across party lines to pass legislation that guarantees continued funding for SNAP during government shutdowns. 2. Investigate the legality of the administration's actions in withholding previously approved funds. 3. Implement safeguards in future funding legislation to prevent such abuses of executive power during shutdowns. The politicization of essential services like SNAP is unacceptable. Time is ticking away. Every day the shutdown continues, more families are at risk of food insecurity. Please act swiftly to address this critical issue and uphold our commitment to supporting those in need, regardless of political circumstances. Thank you.
