Lots of wrong information coming from the Trump administration on SNAP "running out of money November 1" and the SNAP contingency fund.

The truth is:
1) It *can* be used to cover SNAP benefits during a shutdown.
2) It actually *must* be used to cover SNAP benefits during a shutdown.

Let's dig in.

perfect optics event to hold right as 40 million americans will increasingly struggle to get food with SNAP benefits expiring

Schmitt has no clue what #SNAP is — or even that the “N” in SNAP stands for “nutrition”, meaning the assistance can only used to buy food or seeds/plants that produce food. 🤡

BOSTON (AP) — Judges order the federal government to use contingency funds for SNAP food aid payments during the shutdown.

SNAP benefits feed essential needs while still leaving many hungry for more Journalist and author Adam Chandler explains what so much of the conversation about them gets wrong.

In 2023:
-39% of SNAP users were Americans under the age of 18
-19% of SNAP users were 60 or older
-60% of SNAP benefits went to families with children

Good answers should always include reframing stupid questions so that Americans can appreciate the truth.

And that's how you do it! Masterclass in dealing with the Trump press!

Bravo. And even more - since the GOP has shown it will agree to fund certain things & then introduce a rescission bill to defund them, how do you negotiate in good faith with a bad faith actor?

@neguse.house.gov gives a lesson on how to reframe a journalist’s stupid question about #SNAP! 💪🏼
