November 1st Deadline: When 42 Million Americans Suddenly Have Their Food Stamp Benefits...
Approximately 1 out of every 8 U.S. residents in on food stamps. So how do you think they are going to react when their EBT cards suddenly don't work anymore? The government shutdown has already been going on for 25 days, and there is no end in sight. The Democrats have absolutely no intention of giving President Trump what he wants, and President Trump has absolutely no intention of giving the Democrats what they want. We are potentially facing the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, and the first day of next month is when things are going to get very real for tens of millions of Americans.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture just announced that there will be no more funding for the food stamp program starting on November 1st…
The U.S. Department of Agriculture on Saturday posted a new message to its website blaming Democrats for the upcoming suspension of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, or food stamps, saying assistance will halt beginning Nov. 1 due to the government shutdown.
"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," the unsigned message posted on the USDA's official website reads.
"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," the notice concludes.
This is really happening.
People that have been relying on their EBT cards to pay for their groceries for years will have to find some other way to feed themselves.

Should funding run out at the end of the month, "we will have the greatest hunger catastrophe in America since the Great Depression, and I don't say that as hyperbole", said Joel Berg, CEO of Hunger Free America.
