Marisa Kabas: The voices of SNAP<\/a><\/h2>\n

Recipients have become political pawns. They explained, in their own words, what Trump withholding funds has been like.<\/p>\n

Stephanie boarded a city bus Monday morning to make the 90 minute trek from one end of Mesa, Arizona to the other. It was a long journey just for groceries, but they didn\u2019t see any other choice: They\u2019re a current recipient of SNAP benefits, and because the Trump administration has refused to fund the essential food program during the government shutdown, they were willing to travel wherever necessary to access fresh fruits and vegetables. A few farmers markets were participating in a program called Food Bucks, and for $30 she was able to stock up for now. \u201cSo even if it\u2019s stressful to navigate and took all morning, I\u2019m grateful for it,\u201d Stephanie said. \u201cBut it shouldn\u2019t have to be like this, of course.\u201d
