[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be illegal for them to fund SNAP.

It’s also illegal for stores to incentivize one customer base over another.

It's NOT illegal for them to fund SNAP.  SNAP is already funded via Contingency Fund with two $3b slogs that are good til November 2026.  TWO judges found that it is legal for them to give out SNAP during a shutdown, plus existing USDA and OMB guidance said so as well - which is why SNAP continued during the shutdown in Trump's first term.  The only reason they are trying to not fund SNAP is because of bullshit made-up nonsense being touted by the Trump administration.

It's also not illegal to give discounts to one customer base over another - or military discounts and other things would be illegal.

You are obviously unfamiliar with the law and just because something gets in the way of Trump's agenda, that doesn't make it "illegal."[/quote]

+1  This administration has something against any policies that help the poor.  [/quote]
