“About 1.2 million veterans are enrolled in SNAP.
<><>More than 20,000 military families,
<><>213,000 National Guard and Reserve members,

I have no problem whatsoever funding these families.

We should move these expenditures into Veteran’s benefits and make them essential, not subject to any shutdown.

While we are at it, we should sharply limit the categories of food and groceries that these benefits in general can buy, down to basic necessities. It can’t be that hard with today’s technologies.
