WIC is a lifeline that helps new parents keep their babies fed.

But thanks to Republicans' government shutdown, WIC funds could run out in a matter of weeks.

Republicans must re-open the government NOW and stop playing with people's lives.

The federal shutdown puts nutrition aid for millions of new parents at risk

Nearly seven million pregnant women and young children depend on WIC for healthy foods. Advocates say funding could run out in about two weeks, leaving states to close the gap if their budgets allow.

Throwback pic from October '21 of a female Golden Orb Weaver (Trichonephila clavipes) at Green Swamp Preserve, NC. The background shows a hint of the habitat, longleaf pine savanna. I love this shot because it reminds me of a gorgeous day; I saw only one other person in six hours. #Arachtober 🌿🐙📷

A closeup photo of a golden orb weaver spider, hanging upside down diagonally along a strand of silk. The spider has an elongated orange abdomen, and long orange and black banded legs. The background is out of focus vertical tree trunks in the upper third, with greenery in the lower two thirds.

That was then.

This is now.

Clean sheet of paper.

After the Tribunal.

I suggest forming go teams now to keep things humming along.

During.

The sentencing and incarceration of a shit ton of failed citizens.
