35K Minnesotans may face added food insecurity, thanks to Trump and his party

Hopefully every one of them who is eligible will get out and vote, not only against Trump himself (if he’s still running by Election Day) but anyone and everyone from the Party of Trump. Plenty are rural residents whose votes could make the difference in close state legislative races.

If the option is available, voting for progressives (as opposed to corporate DFLers) in primaries would also kick butt.

More than 35,000 Minnesotans could lose federal food stamp benefits under a proposed Trump administration rule change that would leave more people hungry in the state, Minnesota officials say.

Some 18,000 children in Minnesota would be affected, according to the Department of Human Services. A public comment period on the proposal ends Monday and interested people can submit their comments online through the Federal Register. - MPR
