**Secretary of Agriculture Brook Rollins Urges George Soros to Fund SNAP Benefits Amid Government Shutdown**
Secretary of Agriculture Brook Rollins on Tuesday encouraged liberal billionaire George Soros to provide funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) through November.
With SNAP benefits set to expire this Saturday due to the ongoing government shutdown, this appeal comes at a critical time for millions of Americans relying on the program.
In an interview with CNN’s Boris Sanchez, Rollins stated that her department does not have the legal authority to distribute any contingency funds to continue the benefits beyond the current deadline.
As the deadline approaches, the future of SNAP funding remains uncertain, highlighting the urgent need for a resolution to support vulnerable populations dependent on this essential program.
