Gov. Abbott, lawmakers weigh in on bill that would bring back funding for stolen SNAP benefits
SNAP Benefits Getting Stolen? I’m Still in Shock.
I was genuinely shocked when I found out people’s SNAP benefits were being stolen. I mean—how?! These are government-issued benefits meant to help families eat and survive, and yet somehow, they’re ending up in the wrong hands? I’m still trying to wrap my head around how this could even happen.
I do remember hearing a story a while ago about people inside the system—actual government employees—stealing from the very folks they were supposed to be helping. But that was years ago, and I guess I naively thought it was a one-off or that things had changed.
Now here we are, and it’s happening again. People are already struggling, and to have their benefits wiped out with no warning? That’s just cruel. I’m digging into this more, but if you’ve experienced this or know someone who has—please speak up. People deserve answers.
