Lujan says Thune is spinning an argument as "justification so 40 million people can go hungry"
Lujan slams the lectern and says when you're in the majority "you meet people" and talk
Said they could meet in WH: "It's easy to get in, there's a big hole in it"

Sen. Luján: There has never been a moment in America's history that food programs have lapsed. When Republicans say there's not enough money, Trump is shaking down the Department of Justice for $230 million for him. He bought Kristi Noem two jets for $180 million, sent $40 billion to Argentina

We filed a "friend of the court" brief in Lujan v. FMCSA on behalf of a coalition of local governments, urging the court to block this harmful policy.

Sen. Luján: This funding for SNAP has never lapsed in the history of the United States. The contingency fund was already utilized to pay for SNAP once. It's bullshit. 42 million people will go hungry. Which Republicans will stand up and object to their constituents eating?

And Thune is pissed: "We are 29 days into a Democrat shutdown"
"You all have just figured out 29 days in that there might be some consequences!"
Honestly, not sure I've seen Thune this mad before

Our state is saying loud and clear, ‘we’re not going to wait for Trump to do the right thing,’ because a hungry child cannot wait for their food. Grateful for Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham for her leadership, and to the state legislature for protecting New Mexicans from Trump’s attacks.

Today’s court rulings confirm what we already knew: there’s no reason to deny food to vulnerable Americans. Still, New Mexico will continue to move forward with $30M in state-funded food benefits tomorrow so families can keep food on the table.
