| Update: Two federal judges ordered that the Trump administration issue SNAP benefits. Now, Trump is keeping millions of Americans in limbo by only agreeing to partial, delayed SNAP payments. Please sign our petition before midnight here to demand that Trump restore full benefits immediately.
I need to tell you what President Trump is doing. There is a hunger crisis rapidly growing in our country. 42 million Americans are about to lose their SNAP benefits because of Donald Trump and his Republican majority that forced a government shutdown. To make matters worse, Trump literally just sent $20 billion to bail out Argentina, while letting millions of Americans go hungry. It's outrageous. This is a nationwide catastrophe for families who rely on SNAP to put food on the table. We must act quickly. I'm asking you to sign my emergency petition before midnight to send a clear message: It is unacceptable to cut SNAP benefits and let Americans go hungry. Please be one of the 25,000 signatures I need. The Trump administration is playing partisan games with people's lives. Now, the government shutdown is putting communities at risk of losing the food assistance they depend on to survive. SNAP is a lifeline for millions of Americans, and the government must do everything in its power to continue providing these life-saving benefits. The Trump administration has up to $6 billion in reserves to fund SNAP. He cares more about pushing political propaganda than helping feed American families. I will keep fighting against the Trump administration's attacks on food assistance. But I need your voices to rise up with me against this injustice. Please join me in this fight against preventable hunger. Sign my emergency petition before midnight and show support for protecting SNAP benefits. Together in the fight, — Kirsten Gillibrand |
