Congress' deadlock on federal funding is jeopardizing SNAP benefits for 650,000 Missourians, leaving vulnerable families facing food insecurity with no safety net.

Missouri has lost nearly 1.6 million pounds of food aid since May due to sudden federal cuts, leaving vulnerable families without essential nutrition. This heartless abandonment of our most vulnerable citizens represents a catastrophic failure of moral leadership that threatens the very fabric of our compassionate society.
