The Pennsylvania governor said in an interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press” he hopes Congress revitalizes Medicaid and SNAP programs next term.
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said he hopes Democrats prioritize healthcare and food assistance when they take control of Congress in January, though he urged them not to forget to hold the Trump administration accountable.
“I hope one of the first things that the Congress does is to stop these Medicaid cuts, stop the SNAP cuts, roll back the cuts, the effective cuts in the Affordable Care Act,” Shapiro said in an interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday.
Shapiro said that in Pennsylvania alone, 510,000 people are losing healthcare and 143,000 more are losing SNAP or food assistance because of cuts approved during Donald Trump’s second term.
While he stressed the importance of revitalizing Medicaid and SNAP programs, Shapiro also said Democrats shouldn’t forget to hold the Trump administration accountable.

Yes but at the same time. You bitches got 2/3 of senate and house. You can do multiple things at once. The play is to vote on single issue bills, stay focus, play politics, play the press to those against the American people and then to the next one. Do it all. I expect Epstein files to download by mid January.
They absolutely did not get 2/3 of the senate, so can’t override veto. They’re sitting at 4 (possibly 5 or 6) seat advantage, so 54-56% of the senate
They need to push like hell, yes, but they’re pretty hamstrung outside their power of the purse unless they can get aisle crossing.

Do not use ableist slurs on Lemmy.World.
Fuck you too. Why do you want to give up? Why don’t you want to speak out of the better? Why do you like being stepped on? Are you those who think your vote doesn’t matter? Are you one who isn’t aware that protesting works? Do you like strugggling day to day? If you want to give up, just say so, so someone else. Can pick you up while we move forward. Just shut the fuck up. Good day.

He’s an ardent zionist.
Non-zionist jews constitute less than 5% of jews so it’s not a surprise to see a shapiro wish for genocide. But man… treating americans like morons has limits.
That’s absolutely not true, who are you counting?
Former IDF genocide supporting douchebag encourages democrats to forget all the crimes, genocide and corruption done in the name of the genocidal child trafficking colony of Israel and their cronies
He needs to get his priorities straight.
