Kids and families are not poker chips or hostages. Trump must release the entirety of the SNAP funds immediately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe Trump administration should stop weaponizing hunger for 42 million Americans and immediately release full \u2013 not partial \u2013 SNAP benefits,\u201d&nbsp;<strong>dijo Schumer.&nbsp;<\/strong>\u201cAs the courts have affirmed, USDA has and must use their authority to fully fund SNAP. Anything else is unacceptable and a half-measure. The Senate must pass this resolution, and Trump must end his manufactured hunger crisis by fully funding SNAP.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>SNAP benefits lapsed on November 1 because Trump initially refused to use a SNAP contingency fund that Congress previously appropriated $6 billion for and additional federal funds available using interchange authority. After two federal judges ruled that President Trump must continue to fund SNAP, the Trump Administration agreed to use the $4.65 billion left in the contingency fund to finance the program. However, the contingency fund will only cover half of SNAP benefits for the month of November, and Trump is refusing to use additional available funds using interchange authority to spend Section 32 tariff revenue\u2014established decades ago\u2014to fully fund SNAP in the month of November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merkley and Schumer\u2019s resolution is also cosponsored by U.S. Senators Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Michael Bennet (D-CO), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Maria Cantwell (D-WA), Chris Coons (D-DE), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), John Hickenlooper (D-CO), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Andy Kim (D-NJ), Angus King (I-ME), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Ben Ray Luj\u00e1n (D-NM), Edward J.
