Millions of New Yorkers rely on SNAP to put food on the table. I joined the entire NY Democratic delegation in calling on the Trump Admin to act immediately and fund November SNAP benefits using the emergency funds that are already available. Read more:
CONGRESSMAN JOE MORELLE CONTINUES FIGHT TO SAVE SNAP BENEFITS
(Washington, D.C.)--Today, Congressman Joe Morelle announced he has joined his colleagues in the New York Democratic Congressional delegation in writing to President Trump and U.S.

Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, and the Republican party have failed to do their jobs. SNAP has emergency funding prepared for situations just like this, they're just refusing to use it.

Grateful to everyone who joined our community conversation with Dr. Elizabeth Murray last night. As families face uncertainty about their healthcare coverage, it was important to hear from a local expert on how to keep your family healthy. Watch a replay here:

More than 100,000 people in Monroe County receive SNAP benefits. Trump is targeting each of them by withholding funding that's already set aside for the program. This is not who we are as Americans, our responsibility is to protect our communities.
'What am I going to do?': Rochester SNAP recipient Marilyn 'Tiny' Diaz fears potential disruption to benefits
ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- More than 100,000 people in Monroe County receive SNAP benefits and News10NBC Chief Investigative Reporter Berkeley Brean met with one of them to discuss her fears about the potential disruption to the program.Marilyn “Tiny” Diaz rece...

Donald Trump's Department of Justice is too busy protecting Jan. 6th rioters to stand up for equal justice for the American people.   We're less safe because of Trump's pardons for these violent criminals; now we're seeing the consequences of repeat offenders.
DOJ places on leave 2 prosecutors who said 'mob of rioters' carried out Jan. 6 attack
Two federal prosecutors have been told they will be put on leave after filing a brief that described the Jan. 6, 2021, attackers a "mob of rioters," sources say.

On this day in 2002, the Help America Vote Act was signed into law, establishing national standards for election administration. As the top Democrat on the Committee on House Administration, it's my duty to support election administrators in their essential, and often underappreciated, work.
Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 28(source)
The Trump administration is targeting America's most vulnerable by withholding funding for SNAP. Today, I stood with my local partners in government to say one thing: we won't sit quietly while families go hungry.
Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 28(source)
On National First Responders Day, we honor the brave men and women who are first to answer the call when emergencies strike. I’m grateful for their courage, sacrifice, and service, which keep our communities safe.
Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 28(source)
Donald Trump is willing to hurt American families, just to prove a political point. It's been 28 days since Republicans shut down the federal government, we've got to get back to work, bring down costs, and protect the benefits our community relies on.
Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 27(source)
Today, Speaker Johnson said, "House Republicans are doing some of the most meaningful work of their careers. I don't want to pull them away from it."   The most meaningful work of their careers ought to be protecting healthcare and nutritional benefits for American families.
Joe Morelle@morelle.house.govOct 26(source)
When people have healthcare challenges, they're already going through all kinds of physical, emotional, and mental challenges. Taking away their coverage, as Republicans are trying to do, is simply cruel. They continually fail to propose a funding plan that helps American families.

Early voting has begun in our local election. The time is now to go out and vote! The most important title in a democracy is citizen, and this is your opportunity to make your voice heard.
