Amid the ongoing government shutdown, SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) Benefits, that roughly a little over a million people in Massachusetts rely on, has been suspended by the U.S. Agriculture Department effective Nov. 4th. The state of MA is among a group of two dozen states that have sued the Trump Admin over this suspension. How can we best help and provide for those who rely on SNAP benefits? Dan has an idea that could at least temporarily help those in MA who rely on SNAP benefits, why not use the roughly over $8 billion rainy day fund to help residents in MA who need assistance?
