On November 1st, 900,000 Arizonans will lose access to SNAP food benefits.

Earlier this year, I visited St Marys Food Bank and learned that more people are hungry today than in 2020.

I call on all GOP legislators to bring this shutdown to an end before our neighbors starve.

Move over MAGA, there’s a new red hat now. Trump gives $40 billion to Argentina. Meanwhile, Americans are paying ever higher costs of food, gas, medications, housing, healthcare…
