On Tuesday, October 28th, we are calling for a day of action to urge our leaders to use every tool they have to ensure November SNAP benefits for the millions of people nationwide who need the program. We are imploring USDA to follow the law and deploy SNAP’s contingency funds to keep benefits flowing. Members of Congress must take urgent action to press USDA to do the right thing and avoid worsening America’s hunger crisis.

42 million Americans are at risk of losing SNAP benefits on November 1st. USDA has a contingency fund available and is refusing to release it. The Trump administration is playing politics with people’s basic needs, and families will go hungry because of it.

This is a critical moment to make a difference. Tell Congress and USDA to release contingency funds and guidance to states now to keep benefits flowing.

How Can You Participate?

Share these resources with your communities through any channel you have available. Social media, email, phone, personal connections — we must get the word out to ensure SNAP benefits are not further disrupted.

How Can People Take Action?

Feel free to share this action alert, which goes to the Members of Congress for each person who responds. You can also share your own actions, links, and messaging as well.
