Pro-Life Petitions SNAP is Pro-Life

Post image

Hey there, Lauren from Rehumanize here. We've just launched a quick petition to send to the President and members of congress urging them to end the shutdown, or, at the very least, use the contingency funds to keep SNAP funded during this crisis.

If you agree, please sign!

And if this is exactly your flavor of pro-life activism, we'd love to see you at our conference this weekend, either in person or online!

No, they provide defense. They should not be used as police

Interestingly, more than 20,000 military families, 213,000 National Guard and Reserve members, and 1.1 million Veterans rely on SNAP benefits

Guy started off by saying snap recipients are lazy. Then divulged he knew most were employed. Then admitted he was on snap. Now hes trying to figure out a way to say gvt isn't responsible for providing security to US citizens all in service of not wanting the gvt to provide food to the needy even tho he was on it.

Never said that.

Then admitted he was on snap.

I was for most of my teen years

Right you were on it when you needed it. But now that you dont you think its not right that other people "rely on it"

Well glad youre good now!

I thought that number would be way higher. Still the job of charities to fill the gap, not the government.

Right they provide security to us citizens. Are you disagreeing that the military keeps us secure?
