Nellie Pou’s shutdown is hurting mothers and children

Democrat Nellie Pou’s shutdown is jeopardizing SNAP and WIC benefits, threatening access to nutrition programs that millions of mothers, infants, and children rely on every month. While Republicans are working to protect essential services, Democrats are blocking help for the most vulnerable.

“Democrat Nellie Pou’s political games are leaving parents wondering how they’ll feed their kids. Republicans are fighting to reopen the government and protect these critical programs.” —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
