A resolution to strongly urge President Donald J. Trump and the United States Congress to take immediate and deliberate action to ensure the issuance of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits for the month of November and for the duration of the continued lapse in appropriations.
This resolution urges President Trump and Congress to restore Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for Michigan's 1.4 million recipients who would lose November payments due to a federal funding lapse. It highlights SNAP's critical role in supporting low-income families, including 43% with children, 36% with older adults, and 51% with disabled individuals. The resolution requests immediate action to ensure benefits continue for November and throughout the funding gap, emphasizing the risk of worsened food insecurity. As a non-binding resolution, it does not change policy but formally expresses concern about the impact on vulnerable Michiganders.
