Trump's shutdown could cut off food assistance to 6.8 million pregnant women, new moms, and children under 5 within a week or two. The WIC program provides healthy food, infant formula, and breastfeeding support. Because the shutdown started on the first day of the fiscal year, states didn't get their funding. Trump must work with Democrats, negotiate on healthcare funding, and end this shutdown before millions of moms and kids lose access to nutritious food.
