Bay Area

I got an emergency text from the AC food bank (which they have literally never done before in my 10 or so years of donating) stating that they were dipping unsustainably into their funding reserves just to feed all the federal employees that aren’t getting paid. That was a few weeks ago, before SNAP ended. The situation now must be even more dire.

Yesterday, the Democrats put forward a bill to fund SNAP and the republicans blocked it. Monsters.
