DEMOCRACY ON HOLD
: The Human Cost of the Shutdown

While Congress plays chicken with the budget, millions of Americans are feeling the fallout.

• Federal workers — furloughed or working without pay.
• SNAP and WIC — delayed or frozen.
• Veterans — facing delayed benefits and support services.

A “temporary” shutdown, but for people living paycheck to paycheck, “temporary” can mean eviction, hunger, or losing health care.

GO, MARYLAND!!!
Maryland’s "SUN Bucks," a summer food program for children, served a record-high number of students this summer, thanks largely to an innovative approach to enrollment: It automatically enrolled students who were already receiving SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), Temporary Cash Assistance, or free or reduced-price school lunches; enrolled in Medicaid; or were in out-of-home care.
