Seniors and Single Parents Left Behind by Suozzi & Gillen’s Shutdown

Democrats Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen down the government, and working families are paying for it at the checkout line. November food stamp benefits are now in jeopardy, creating real uncertainty for seniors, single parents, and every family trying to stretch a grocery budget.

This is Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen’s priority list in plain English: closed government, higher costs, fewer protections for the most vulnerable.

“Democrats Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen manufactured this shutdown, and now families are bracing for empty pantries. It’s backward, cruel, and totally avoidable.” —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
