Advocacy Alert
SNAP Benefits End on Saturday, 11/1/25 – Take Action
Barring any federal intervention, 42 million Americans will lose Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits on Saturday. This is a result of the federal government shutdown that is now in its 5th week.
This includes 3 million New Yorkers, including over 100,000 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities that will not receive their SNAP benefits.
It’s time to make our voices heard with our 26 Congressional representatives to express our concerns. Therefore, please take a moment to send a message to your representative.
Use the NY Alliance’s one-click advocacy tool in our Government Action Center. You may simply send the message that is uploaded in the tool or you can personalize that message.
We urge you to pass this action alert along to your network of colleagues, self-advocates, parents/family members and friends.
Thank you for your advocacy.
