HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — More than 214,500 households across Connecticut will receive at least $95 in extra monthly food benefits beginning Friday, the state Department of Social Services announced on Tuesday.
The additional benefits provided under the Emergency Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP are expected to continue as long as there are declared state and federal public health emergencies related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Eligible households in Connecticut will receive the extra food aid on their Electronic Benefit Transfer or EBT cards. Households that are already receiving the maximum monthly SNAP benefit will receive an extra $95. Those who don’t usually qualify for the maximum benefit will receive an average of $155 in additional funds, depending on their individual situation.

God forbid that some of these people would have to suffer by not getting their nails done or a perm and have to buy groceries with their own money
They know the crunch is coming and handing out more in order to keep the masses from complaining when it hits.

Seems like there are help wanted signs on every corner.
“God forbid that some of these people would have to suffer by not getting their nails done or a perm and have to buy groceries with their own money”
No doubt their children will continue to receive free breakfast and lunch at school. This despite the fact their SNAP benefits are determined by the number of children in the household.
That should keep another 50,00 deadbeats comfortable and out of the workforce. Libertards have no idea about how any of this works. They are a clear and present danger.
Meanwhile, the same Government is telling us that they are running out of money for Social Security.
I saw a bum the other day with a tiny hand-written sign “anything helps” — standing in front of a “Help Wanted” sign.
Apparently anything helps except working for a living.
A bunch of people don’t have any pride these days.
They want government to provide the necessities.
Their income is just for pleasure.
Whole damn world is upside down.
$95 is about 15 Digiorno Pizzas on sale.
Right!!??? Or they might have to figure out how to make some $1.00/lb chicken stretch into several meals or buy some canned goods on sale. Actually cook oatmeal for breakfast.
When 0bama was in office, I thought I hit my maximum level of being ticked off about everything being given away for free to those who did not wish to work. But I was wrong....
Joe cut off our oil and gas production. Fertilizer, pesticides, transport all need oil and gas. We essentially eat oil. Printing more money will not result in more food production.
A quarter million households just in Connecticut??
Why work? Why save? Live off the government and those foolish enough to work, save and pay taxes?
And hard working people will have that money taken from their paychecks to pay for it.
When the supermarket shelves empty out, their extra money won’t buy squat. Same for the liquor stores.
Would you hire a mentally ill man, that smelled like cabbage and had no home address?
You saw him, too?
Correct. It’s here.
Overstock Control. Media “shortage” propaganda.
O.C. : Overstock Controls
“Card only” registers.

Thanks for posting that!
It’s pretty clear how far this nation has fallen when it pays to be an unemployed & obese sloth.
