As soon as you turn an adult, expenses just hit you. And it\u2019s hard to afford things. Your country is supposed to be supporting you, and the last thing you want to worry about is if you\u2019re going to have food on your table at the end of the night. We have a lot of seniors here. There\u2019s a lot of disabled people, so they rely on us because the SNAP is just not enough. And especially now, when there\u2019s going to be completely cut off, they\u2019re going to rely on us 100 percent even more to come and get as much food as possible.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-hple31\">Forty-two million low-income Americans could lose access to food assistance on Nov. 1, making it the most significant and dire casualty of a governmentwide closure that has stretched into its fifth week.
