Now, 700,000 TN children, seniors & people w/ disabilities are going to miss meals and sheβs pretending to care b/c sheβs running for Governor.
She thinks your too dumb to remember

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

FOOD BANK DIRECTOR: βFor every meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. Thereβs no way we can meet that gap. We were not built to do this.β
(@TNDemocrats are imploring @GovBillLee to fund SNAP with the billions in reserves as other states are, but he refuses)
Teachers everywhere are doing what they can to help. Sending extra food home in backpacks, creating food drives, and buying as many classroom
snacks as our paychecks allow. No child should be hungry. Period
This is not an 'TOLD YOU SO' in any sense of the term, but lots of people predicted literally this shit and more people went 'oh no piffle you reactionary dipshits'
And I am pointing this out for two clear reasons.
1. Those people had poor judgement and should course correct but many won't
Thank you Cheryl! π

Yesterday we talked a little bit about SNAP ending and how everyone who can, should give back to their communities. I'm going to spend a little time today talking about what to give.

A series of images from the dept of labors social media campaign. Most are of blonde hair blue eyed men with slogans like America first and your nation needs you. Two show a family of four.
The Department of Laborβs new ad campaign is disturbingly reminiscent of Nazi Germanyβ¦
I hope all the women who voted for Trump pay attention to how theyβre used in this ad.
They want us barefoot in the kitchen.
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
Itβs corporate greed. Itβs an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work.
So, letβs get to it. linktr.ee/cadem
