Tell Trump: Release Emergency Funds to Feed Families Now

Trump is suspending food aid for millions of Americans — cutting off SNAP and WIC benefits that keep children, veterans, and working parents from going hungry starting tomorrow.

Billions of dollars are sitting in federal accounts, including emergency funds set aside specifically for SNAP.

But Trump ordered the Department of Agriculture to pause all new benefit disbursements until Congress passes Trump’s budget cuts — holding hungry families hostage to his political demands. 

Tell Trump: “Stop using hunger as a weapon. Release emergency food aid funds and restore SNAP and WIC now.”

Trump could stop this right now. He has the power to release emergency funds and keep food programs running during the shutdown — but he refuses. Every day he delays means more parents skipping meals so their kids can eat, and more seniors going hungry alone.

Food should never be a bargaining chip. Add your name to demand Trump end this cruel shutdown blackmail and feed America’s families before it’s too late.

The petition to Trump reads: “Stop using hunger as a weapon. Release emergency food aid funds and restore SNAP and WIC now.”
