I'm pissed as hell about SNAP.

Partial payments were released to MT SNAP recipients last night about an hour before the vote, which means the state hadn't received any Federal funding but had received assurance from our senators that the Democrats had caved on healthcare. It also means that they had plenty of money sitting around available to pay for at least half of the November SNAP obligations and chose not to do the right thing and feed people. The Republicans in charge of this state chose to use hunger as a weapon when they had the money to pay for at least half (they should have more than enough - check your property tax bill for a reminder).
