Governor Healey Provides SNAP and Health Care Updates

Published | Video Starts at 02:17

He's the only president in history to basically decide to starve Americans and not fund SNAP during a federal shutdown that puts over 1 million, 1.1 million people in Massachusetts at risk. We took the Trump administration to court, and we won. I'm grateful to Attorney General Campbell for her team's work on that. On Friday, after the court victory, I directed our team to fully apply for SNAP benefits to make sure that they were paid to everyone who was eligible to receive those benefits. (02:17–02:21)
