You've all heard about SNAP running out of funds on November 1st. There are still billions of dollars in emergency funds available but Trump won't allow the Department of Agriculture to release those funds. Today two different federal judges have nearly simultaneously ordered the Trump administration to release those emergency funds. Fingers crossed. In the meantime, our local Moultonborough food bank has depleted shelves. Moultonborough Dems member Shannon Fairchild stopped into the Moultonborough food pantry this morning and saw that the shelves "are basically COMPLETELY BARE".
On the totally wonderful side, Moultonborough youth librarian Sharon Gulla is already on it. She spoke to the city and has organized a food drive. You can drop off packaged food at multiple locations. See the flier they created to get an idea of what they want and where you can bring it. Moultonborough is generous. No Bah Humbug here!
