Trump is doing everything he possibly can to NOT feed families during this Republican shutdown.

Trump administration seeks to block full SNAP payments for November

The Trump administration has asked a federal appeals court to block a judge’s order to distribute November’s full SNAP benefits during a U.S. government shutdown.

Thank you for everything, Madam Speaker.

Nancy Pelosi has been one of the most consequential leaders of our time. She is a trailblazer, a force of nature, and a pillar of strength, determination, and compassion. Her progressive legislative record stands unmatched, and America is a better place because of her years of service.

Republicans just broke the record for longest shutdown. They're refusing to meet with Democrats to open the government and address the health care crisis they created. It's shameful, and it's time for them to come to the table and help us protect health care for millions.

ACA marketplace premiums could rise even more without congressional action

Health insurance premiums in the Affordable Care Act marketplace could increase by an average of 114% for subsidized enrollees in 2026 if Congress fails to extend enhanced subsidies.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 4(source)

Trump is choosing to take food away from families, despite being ordered to pay out SNAP funding by multiple courts. Playing politics and using hunger as a weapon like this is not only cruel, it's illegal.

Trump confirms he is weaponizing hunger

SNAP BENEFITS, which increased by Billions and Billions of Dollars (MANY FOLD!) during Crooked Joe Biden’s disastrous term in office (Due to the fact that they were haphazardly “handed” to anyone for the asking, as opposed to just those in need, which is the purpose of SNAP!), will be given only when the Radical Left Democrats open up government, which they can easily do, and not before! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 1(source)

Open enrollment for health care begins today, and millions of Americans could see their coverage costs skyrocket. Health care should be affordable – that's exactly what Democrats are fighting for every day. It's time for Republicans to come to the table.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govOct 30(source)

It's Day 30 of the government shutdown. Republican leadership canceled votes in the House in September and haven't called us back into session for a SINGLE DAY since the shutdown began. It's past time for them need to come back and work with us to protect health care and reopen the government.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govOct 28(source)

The money is there to fund SNAP next month. The Trump Administration is CHOOSING to let families go hungry. We are calling on the USDA and this Administration to reverse this decision and make sure 42 million people don't lose the food assistance they rely on.

US House Democrats push USDA to fund food benefits as shutdown continues

More than 200 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives told the Agriculture Department on Friday it should draw on its emergency reserves to fund November food benefits, which are compromised by the ongoing federal shutdown.

Yesterday, ICE again denied our congressional oversight visit to the San Diego federal building to follow up on reports that ICE is detaining people there in inhumane conditions. It doesn't matter how much ICE tries to stonewall us. We're going to continue to show up and push for answers.

San Diego lawmakers once again refused entry to courthouse

Detention centers cannot currently be visited by members of Congress, leaving the condition of those detained unknown by the general public.

At the San Diego federal building again with Reps. Peters, Levin, and Jacobs to conduct oversight after reports that ICE is detaining people here in the basement in concerning conditions. Last Monday, ICE blocked myself and Rep. Peters from entering. Today, we’re back again to demand answers.

The Trump Administration has contingency money for SNAP. They're just choosing not to use it. 42 million Americans, including 28 million seniors, children, and people with disabilities, risk losing their food assistance in November. Disgusting.

Trump administration won’t use contingency fund to pay November food stamp benefits | CNN Politics

The US Department of Agriculture says it will not tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits next month, according to an agency memo obtained by CNN. That means that roughly...

As members of Congress, it's our job to conduct oversight. That's what @replamonica.bsky.social was doing when she was targeted by this Administration. We stand with Rep. McIver against these sham charges.

A judge is questioning whether New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver was illegally targeted by the Trump administration.

If nothing’s wrong, then why is ICE trying to stop us from doing our job of Congressional oversight? What are they trying to hide? This is NOT OVER. We won’t stop showing up, demanding answers, and working to protect our communities! 3/3

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govOct 21(source)

We’ve heard extremely concerning reports that the number of ICE detainees in the basement of the courthouse is rising, families are having trouble getting in touch with their loved ones, and people are being held for days in spaces without real beds or showers. 2/3

Today, ICE denied @repscottpeters.bsky.social and me entry to areas where they hold detainees in the San Diego Courthouse. 1/3

Republicans and Trump have been happy to give away massive tax cuts for billionaires, build a new ballroom at the White House, and propose billions in a bailout to a Trump ally in Argentina. But when we demand health care for working families? Republicans decide to shut down the government.

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson predicted Monday the federal government shutdown may become the longest in history, saying he “won’t negotiate” with Democrats until they hit pause on their health care demands and reopen. https://to.pbs.org/4nfq5Je

“It runs counter to the goals of making housing more affordable. In the end, you’re just going to get fewer homes built.” Trump's economy is crushing families. None of this is making life more affordable.

This is about protecting affordable health care for millions of families across the country! This is why we're fighting, and we're not backing down.

Our nation’s story can’t be told without the story of the Indigenous people who first called this land home. On Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor their histories, contributions, and resilience. We must continue to work towards a future rooted in justice and equality.
