In Illinois, $20 million in emergency government money will go to seven food banks that cover the state.
Pritzker said that 42 million Americans are in jeopardy of losing lose benefits that includes nearly 2 million in Illinois.
“They have done something insidious the federal government in addition to Donald Trump being willing to turn off SNAP benefits on November 1 when they do have emergency funds available at the Department of Agriculture and they’re choosing not to use,” he said.
Businesses who sell food and cater to low income SNAP recipients will be affected as well.
Democratic Attorneys General and governors from 25 states including Illinois sued the Trump Administration earlier this week over its decision not to tap emergency funds for SNAP.
