The Trump administration has both the funds and the legal authority to fully fund food assistance benefits in November. Two federal judges agreed. The Trump administration must use those funds to help feed those 42 million Americans.

Two federal judges rule the Trump administration must tap into billions in emergency funds to at least partially cover food stamp benefits in November https://cnn.it/4ok7bSI

My Democratic colleagues and I remain ready to work today to reopen the government with a bipartisan agreement that protects health care and delivers real solutions for the American people. It’s time for Republicans to put politics aside, come back to the table, and do their jobs.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 31(source)

30,880 people in Washington's Ninth District will lose health care because of Republican cuts to Apple Health.

Happy Halloween. Hope all have a safe and fun night in the district.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 31(source)

It's just a fact. President Trump could fix the problem with SNAP funding if he wanted to. Instead, he and the Republicans choose to inflict the maximum amount of pain on struggling Americans.

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 31(source)

More than half of SNAP participants are members of families with children. We need the Republicans to do their job and fight against hunger by distributing the funds that these working-class people need.

A Closer Look at Who Benefits from SNAP: State-by-State Fact Sheets

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly known as food stamps) is the nation’s most important anti-hunger program, reaching some 41 million people nationwide in 2024. These...

Trump is making Halloween more expensive this year. His chaotic, unstable economic policies are driving up the costs of Halloween candy.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 30(source)

The Trump administration has the responsibility to feed 42 million hungry Americans. SNAP has about $5 billion in an emergency fund and has the ability to transfer this money to provide funding to cover November benefits. Instead, they're leaving them hungry.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 30(source)

While Republicans serve themselves, Democrats are working for you. We want to reopen the government, extend cost-saving health care tax credits, and make like more affordable for hardworking Americans.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 30(source)

To find resources, visit Washington state’s Agriculture Department website or call 360-725-5640.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 30(source)

Many will turn to food banks and pantries in and around the district for support, and I applaud Governor Ferguson for shifting almost $2.2 million each week to the WA Department of Agriculture to help food banks.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 30(source)

More than 1 in 10 residents in Washington rely on food assistance programs but will go hungry as the Trump administration rips away federal funds for SNAP benefits starting November 1.

WA to direct $2.2 million a week to food banks as SNAP cutoff nears

More than 1 in 10 state residents are in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, whose benefits will end Nov. 1 due to the ongoing government shutdown.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

42 million Americans will be thrown off SNAP benefits on November 1 because the Trump administration refuses to release authorized funds to feed working-class families.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

The Republican goal in this government shutdown is to inflict the maximum amount of pain possible on the American people. Democrats want to help the American people by providing food assistance, health care, and federal pay checks.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

If you are a recipient of food assistance benefits, I want to make sure you have access to the resources to feed your family. To find a food bank or pantry near you, visit agr.wa.gov/services/foo... or call 360-725-5640.

We need to allocate resources to those in need and have Republicans come back to negotiate an end to the government shutdown they created.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

The Trump administration's suspension of SNAP food assistance is unlawful and devastating to families across our state. Food banks are already overburdened and cannot be the solution to the man-made food crisis by the Trump administration withholding funds.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

Great thanks to @governorferguson.bsky.social for moving $2.2 million each week to support Washington food banks as they feed the nearly one million Washingtonians relying on SNAP benefits.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govOct 29(source)

Four weeks of the government shutdown and not one minute of Republicans negotiating with Democrats. Come back to Congress, do your job, and work for the American people.
