because of the government shutdown and the failure to pass a budget for the next fiscal year, SNAP benefits that give people money to buy food for themselves and their families have lapsed for the month of november. MILLIONS of people, including children, the sick, and the elderly, cannot provide food for themselves. lawsuits were brought to federal court and federal judges instructed the executive branch to use backup funds to fund SNAP. the president posted on truth social that he would do so-
you clearly don’t understand what’s going on. the CR from the republicans would slash healthcare (which is not going to undocumented immigrants, before you say fucking anything stupid) and pretty much kill thousands if not millions. the dems are in congress TRYING TO WORK WITH REPUBLICANS AND CONVINCE THEM THAT HELPING THEIR CONSTITUENTS STAY ALIVE IS A GOOD THING.
my opinion is that people have the right to be fed and have what they need to live life in as healthy a manner as possible. people deserve food, healthcare, housing, and an education. that’s my opinion. i believe there’s more than enough money in the government to do those things, but that billionaires need to spread their wealth in order to better others. there is no reason anyone should be a billionaire. if you need healthcare and you’re in the us, we should be able to accommodate.-
NO FAMILY, INDIVIDUAL, OR CHILD SHOULD BE SUFFERING BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT PROVIDING THE WELFARE THEY ARE LEGALLY BOUND TO PROVIDE. i don’t care who it is, if you’ve been approved for SNAP or any sort of food assistance program, that’s great you’ll have food. and yes, that includes sweet treats because even poor people deserve that. the government has a duty to help it’s people. historically and statistically speaking, HELPING PEOPLE LIVE HELPS THEM LIVE IN SOCIETY.
