Food Assistance

The 2025 federal government shutdown means that SNAP benefits are delayed.

On Nov 1, 600,000 Coloradans, half of them children, will lose access to food money.

EBT and WIC will go unfunded unless Congress ends the shutdown.

Colorado has the money to bridge the gap. But the USDA has blocked it.

Lauren Boebert is a Member of Congress today because her family once relied on food stamps. Now she’s standing by while kids in her neighborhood go hungry. Ladder pullers don’t make great leaders.

If your family is affected:

• Colorado Works cash assistance will continue because it’s state-funded. Your caseworker can approve up to $800 in supplemental help.

Food resources:

• Dial 2-1-1 or call (866) 760-6489

• Visit www.211colorado.org

• Find local pantries at FeedingColorado.org/find-food

No child in Colorado should go hungry because politicians can’t do their jobs.
