Trump's SNAP freeze not only stopped monthly benefits it also made any previously unused benefits unavailable.

If people were undereating to try to save up and have a bit more around the holidays it is all unavailable.

SNAP benefits cut off during shutdown, driving long lines at food pantries People across the country formed long lines for free meals and groceries at food pantries and drive-through giveaways Saturday, after monthly benefits through the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, were suddenly cut off because of the ongoing government shutdown. Mary Martin, who volunteers at the pantry, also relies on it regularly for food to supplement her SNAP payments. “If I didn't have the pantry to come to, I don't know how we would make it,” Martin said.

Trump won voters on SNAP

Rama Duwaji, Zohran Mamdani’s wife, stays in the background by design | CNN Politics If Zohran Mamdani wins Tuesday’s election for New York City mayor, becoming the city’s first Muslim leader and its youngest in a century, his wife too would be positioned to make and shape history. Rama Duwaji would be the first member of Generation Z to serve as New York City’s first lady, a 28-year-old artist moving into Gracie Mansion under the relentless spotlight of America’s largest city.

Duwaji’s political views speak loudly through her art, which features black-and-white illustrations depicting Middle Eastern women, severe hunger in Gaza and the Palestinian flag.
