So what happens when the Federal government can’t issue Nov Food Stamps?

You CANNOT use contingency funds unless the program is RUNNING! Call your Democrat Senators and tell them to vote yes and get SNAP back.

SNAP isn't Obamacare. One is food, the other is health care.

There are emergency funds already allocated AND appropriated to be used if SNAP funding was interrupted -- so why isn't Trump releasing the SNAP (that's food, son) funds, as ordered by a federal judge?

And both are covered under the CR. Dems don't want to agree to it, so suffer.

No, the GOP unilaterally cut SNAP benefits and are letting ACA funding expire. The Dems do not agree to that which is why they don't agree with the CR. And, with recissions, the Executive branch is ignoring the laws already in place and the Dems don't agree with that, either.

The dems want 1.5T ADDITIONAL spending on Obamacare to keep it going. You aren't getting it in a CR.

But you are ok with

1) people not having health coverage
2) 40B to argentina
3) 20+ billion to farmers
4) increased prices because of tariffs
5) less federal income because of unfunded tax cuts
6) further consolidation of wealth and control to an oligarch class

You are getting mad at the little people, more than half of whom are Trump voters, instead of the people in control, who are raping our treasury for everything it is worth.

+1000%

It's astounding that some of the posters on this thread want to go through a struggling single mom's shopping cart like it was a forensic homicide site yet they don't want to audit billionaires.

I guess they envision themselves as "temporarily embarrassed billionaires" themselves, ignoring the fact that we are in a K-shaped economy, where only the richest are getting richer and everyone else is getting poorer.

Please don’t try to pass off social media memes as your own.

I want the Dems to keep refusing as long as it takes Mike Johnson to return the House Republicans. Literally as long as it takes. We’ll wait.

Snap won't go anywhere. Trump will comply.

YES YOU CAN. Using all caps does not change the appropriations laws that provided the funds.

They managed to keep the program running during previous shutdowns.

If it's not running, that was a CONSCIOUS CHOICE made by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.

And they absolutely CAN use the contingency fund. Trump and Republicans are deliberately weaponizing SNAP and are lying about it.

Stop saying "they cannot."

But but what you don't understand is that Trump is all anxious over making sure he follows the laws of the land and doesn't accidentally overstep by using the money where he is supposed to use the money. It's making him constipated and bloated with stress

Why is Thune refusing to bring the clean CR to the floor for a vote? The House passed it a month ago!

That doesn't even make sense. Where are you getting this from? Do you understand what the word contingency means?

Republicans: we're going to starve the poor and disabled until you allow us to take away your heart insurance.

Trump’s only worried about the stability of the Argentine peso, not the stability of Americans in dire need of food and assistance with paying for healthcare. No safety net for them. Argentina first!

Awww, bless your heart thinking our Congress men and women give a damn about the wishes of us regular people. You'll vote for them no matter what so why should they care about your specific interests?
