Here are the facts: ✅Congress provided SNAP contingency funding for emergencies. ✅A Republican shutdown is an emergency. ✅42 million Americans need food assistance. ✅Secretary Rollins has the funding and legal authority to issue SNAP benefits in November.
Today, we remember the 11 innocent Jewish congregants whose lives were cut short by an act of senseless violence at the Tree of Life Synagogue in 2018. We must stand up and speak out against hate and antisemitism in all forms. I'm praying for the families of the victims today.
The subsidies and credits enacted under the Affordable Care Act are pro-business, and pro-America. I’m deeply disappointed that my Republican colleagues refuse to work in the best interest of the American people by extending these credits.
SNAP benefits — or “food stamps” as they are more commonly referred to — are a lifeline for Americans of all ages, beliefs, and backgrounds. An estimated 42 million Americans rely on them to put food on their table, including 1.4 million Michiganders.
It’s unconscionable to think that Republicans not only depleted SNAP to the tune of $186 billion in the so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” and now also have effectively cancelled SNAP benefits for November, leaving families out to dry for Thanksgiving.
For less than 25% of the cost of bailing out a Trump ally in a foreign country, we could support American families putting food on their tables. It's a gut punch to the folks who are already struggling the most.
The longer this shutdown continues, the more pain our air traffic controllers and TSA employees feel. I hosted a roundtable at GRR to hear directly from West Michigan aviation professionals about their concerns, and reaffirm my commitment to ensuring that we end the shutdown so they can get paid.
