TAKE ACTION: 

1. Contact your Congressional legislators to end the shutdown while protecting Healthcare:

• Fight to end the government shutdown and at the same time extend  Affordable Care Act subsidies (affecting more than 340,000 Oregonians)
• Pressure the USDA to release the SNAP contingency funds Congress approved for November and to supplement it with other funds. Hunger should not be a political tool (affecting 757,000 Oregonians)

2. Feed our neighbors who are affected by the shutdown: Find Oregon Department of Human Services food resources or Oregon food bank near you and learn what they need now – money or food – to address unmet needs from SNAP.
