Senate Democrats tried to pass a resolution pressuring the Trump administration to FULLY fund November SNAP benefits.
Senate Republicans shot it down- allowing Trump to continue treating hungry Americans as political pawns during this #GOPShutdown. It’s shameful.

#ElectionDay is tomorrow! Your vote is your voice- especially in PA where three state Supreme Court justices are on the ballot.
Polls are open from 7AM to 8PM! Visit vote.phila.gov to find your nearest polling place or where you can drop off your absentee ballot.
Meanwhile, this weekend, 42 million Americans missed their November SNAP food assistance because of the Trump administration’s cruel and illegal actions.
Nearly 500,000 Philadelphians rely on SNAP to put food on the table.
That's why, alongside @congressmanboyle.bsky.social, @scanlon.house.gov, @repjordanharris.com and Rep. Krajewski, I called on the Trump administration to obey federal district court rulings and FULLY fund November SNAP benefits.
As Pennie open enrollment begins today, hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians are seeing their premiums skyrocket or getting priced out of health care coverage altogether.
House Democrats want to extend ACA tax credits to STOP this shutdown of health care. Why don't most House Republicans?
To find essential resources in PA and ways to help:
If the Trump administration cruelly and illegally chooses to withhold SNAP payments tomorrow, 2 million Pennsylvanians won’t receive the food assistance they’re counting on.
I applaud Governor Shapiro’s swift actions to help Pennsylvanians in need at this time.
2 million Pennsylvanians are hours away from losing their SNAP benefits.
And President Trump is showing off his fancy new bathroom??
If the Trump administration wanted to- it could send out November SNAP benefits. Congress has put BILLIONS of dollars in a SNAP contingency fund for exactly this situation.
So Secretary Rollins is correct here!
#Philadelphia: With ACA Open Enrollment only days way, you may have already begun receiving notices with your insurance rates going up.
I want to hear directly from you how a premium price increase will impact your family! Comment below or share your story with my office at:
So, Trump decided that a $40 billion bailout to his right-wing foreign ally was “essential,” but feeding 42 million Americans- including 16 million children, 8 million seniors, and 1.2 million veterans isn’t.
Is this what "America First" looks like in practice?
“I’m scared,” Deardra, a Philly child care provider & @afscme.bsky.social member, told me.
Deardra is one of the millions of Americans who rely on the ACA tax credits to afford their health care. Stories like hers are exactly why I am fighting to protect these tax credits.

Republicans want to starve children to pressure Democrats into gutting healthcare.
How do we know?
Mike Johnson just admitted it.
Republicans weaponizing hunger: Trump refuses to use billions of dollars in the SNAP contingency fund, Senate Republicans block a bill to fund SNAP & WIC, and the House can’t even pass a bill to fund SNAP because it’s Day 41 of Speaker Johnson keeping us out of voting session. #GOPShutdown
“Funds are available for [SNAP] program operations even in the event of a government shutdown"- This was DIRECTLY from Trump's USDA- but they deleted it from the website.
Trump isn't trying to “mitigate harm.” He's illegally choosing not to pay November SNAP benefits & covering it up!
It’s a hollow gesture to introduce bills like this UNLESS it’s coupled with calling for Speaker Johnson to end House Republicans’ 40-day paid vacation and open the House again for votes. #GOPShutdown
