Making Sense of Greene's Stance on Government Shutdown
A MAGA true believer has voiced doubts about House Republicans' role in the partial government shutdown. The Department of Agriculture website provides information on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
Visitors to the website are greeted with a message stating that Senate Democrats have voted 12 times not to fund the food stamp program. The message reads:
Senate Democrats have now voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01. We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats. They can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance.
Notably, users cannot apply for SNAP benefits on the USDA site and must instead apply via their state's site, by mail, or in person.
