SNAPBenefits 2 003BURBANK — State Senator Mike Porfirio is urging the federal administration to resolve the ongoing government shutdown to prevent the halt of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, benefits, come Nov. 1. Nearly two million Illinois residents rely on SNAP to provide basic nutrition for themselves and their families.

"SNAP benefits that help feed thousands of residents in my community and millions across the country should never be at risk because of political disagreements," said Porfirio (D-Lyons Township). “I am calling for the federal administration to ensure that families in need are fed and that food security is prioritized."

“The job our teachers do in the classroom is irreplaceable,” said Porfirio (D-Lyons Township). “AI cannot build the welcoming learning environments or trusting relationships that our teachers can with students. Our students learn best when they know their teacher is invested in their growth.”
