Sanders: Letβs be clearβ¦ If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are going to see at least a doubling in their premiumsβ¦ if resolution is passed tonight, we are on a path way to throw 15 million Americans off of medicaid and the affordable care act, 15 million.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. Itβs about peopleβs lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly whatβs wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets
Sarah Lungwitz has fretted over feeding not just her two teenage daughters with SNAP payments disrupted, but her family's cat and two dogs. Help has arrived for now, she says, after an Illinois nonpr...
No one is seeing the silent suffers in this. A pet is family. A lot on snap budget what little money they have to make sure their pet is taken care of. It would break my heart to see shelters overwhelmed because of this. I also fear what happens when it gets desperate.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to βlook up her name online.β He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.
