The Department of Agriculture announced Saturday that without congressional intervention, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will shut down with the federal government on Nov. 1.

“Senate Democrats have now voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program,” the USDA website reads. “Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01.”
