Governor Healey Responds to Trump Administration Threatening to Withhold SNAP Funding from Democratic States
BOSTON – Governor Maura Healey issued the following statement after President Donald Trump’s Agriculture Secretary, Brooke Rollins, said that the United States Department of Agriculture would withhold SNAP funding for Democratic-controlled states starting next week. Massachusetts has not received notice from the federal government about withheld funds.
“This is truly appalling and cruel,” said Governor Healey. “The Trump Administration is once again playing politics with the ability of working parents with children, seniors and people with disabilities to get food. President Trump needs to order Secretary Rollins to release SNAP funding immediately and prevent more Americans from going hungry."
