LI families losing SNAP benefits because of Suozzi & Gillen’s politics

Millions of Americans are losing access to SNAP because Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen chose political brinkmanship over keeping government services running. While families struggle with rising food costs and rely on these benefits to put meals on the table, Suozzi and Gillen prioritized leverage and headlines instead of protecting vulnerable households. Suozzi and Gillen’s shutdown stunt has real consequences and hardworking families are paying the price.

“Families counting on SNAP to feed their kids shouldn’t suffer because Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen chose politics over people. Their shutdown games are punishing those who need help the most, and voters won’t forget who turned their backs on struggling Americans.”  —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
