Letting people go hungry in this shutdown is a choice Trump is intentionally making.
He could tell the USDA to use contingency funds to ensure families get their SNAP benefits on November 1st, he’s just choosing not to.
Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact:
TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.
Early voting starts today, New Jersey. Get out there and vote!

The Navy taught me that leaders always put the people they serve first.
That's how you know I'll work every day to lower your costs and fight for your family just as hard as I would my own. Watch our final ad.

We are here for the same reason our ancestors gathered in 1776.
We want our government to run without a king!
New Jersey has ranked 7th in the nation for overall child well-being, according to latest data from the @annieecaseyfdn.bsky.social. #NJ ranks near the top nationwide in Education (2nd) and Health (6th), with nearly all the state's indicators in these areas reporting better than the national level:
Right now, Veteran Crisis Hotline calls are going unanswered and clinics are operating dangerously understaffed.
Even cancer patients are struggling to access treatment.
And what's the GOP's plan for vets? Fire 30,000 VA employees and slash critical VA funding in their Big, Ugly Bill.
New Jersey’s own Scott Ruskan saved 165 people in Texas on his first rescue mission. Thank you, Scott, for your bravery and heroism.

Republicans in Congress had a choice:
Vote to protect the people they serve or vote to please Donald Trump.
When millions lose their health care, SNAP benefits, local hospitals and nursing homes—this moment will be remembered.
And the American people will know who to blame.
BREAKING: The cowardly Republicans passed the "big, beautiful bill." We won't mince words—people will die.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social has been speaking for over 4 hours as we continue the fight to #KillTheBill that would rip healthcare away from 17 million Americans, food assistance away from millions more, and add trillions to our national debt.
All to fund more tax breaks for billionaires.
I'm hearing from folks all across New Jersey about how Republicans' dangerous cuts will take food away from seniors, children, and other vulnerable communities. 1/2
Thank you Leader Jeffries for continuing to fight for the millions of Americans who would be deeply hurt by this bill.
The Senate just voted to strip Medicaid away from millions of people across the country.
There's no time to waste — tell your Representatives to protect our health care and save Medicaid.
It's $162 million stolen from New Jersey.
The Republican budget would be the largest transfer of wealth from the working class to the well off in the history of this country.
It cuts food assistance for hungry children, explicitly to offset the cost of tax breaks that overwhelmingly benefit the richest Americans.

JD Vance (@jd-vance-1.bsky.social) and Senate Republicans on voting to cut your healthcare:
– “Well, we are all going to die”
– “They’ll get over it”
– “Immaterial minutiae”
It's simple: Trump's SALT cap hurts New Jersey. And now he’s doubling down on his proposal that leaves middle-class families paying more.
While he cuts taxes for billionaires, our teachers and first responders are stuck footing the bill.

Last week, Jack Ciattarelli said he couldn’t think of a single thing he disagreed with Trump on.
Moments ago, the Senate passed Trump’s price hike bill, which Jack has repeatedly endorsed.
By contrast, I’m voting NO on the bill, because it’s going to drastically raise your costs.🧵1/10
