    SNAP is not for veterans but for anyone, including Illegals.

    VA took my husband years to get his disability approved and hr was too weak to open the letter awarding him 90 percent, died less tha 3 weeks after getting the letter. It didnt matter at that point.

      It does take forward it took my spouse almost 8 years to get it. Compensation is more important than food stamps, or snap.

    Let me share a story of life in Arizona. Did you know that feeding the homeless caries a fellony arrest in Arizona. My wife has given brown bag lunches to the homeless, most of which are veterans many are women. You "representative" of the citizen of the USA need to get a touch of reality. It my be TOO LATE.

    “Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain.”
    - Frederic Bastiat
    Even the absurdities of socialist ideology are coming to pass.
