    Episode 3 — When the Safety Net Freezes


    Millions of Americans rely on SNAP, the federal food assistance program that helps families keep groceries on the table. When Congress stalls on funding, that safety net freezes, and the people most affected are the ones who can least afford the delay. In this episode, DeNiro breaks down how SNAP works, why shutdowns disrupt it, and who bears the weight when benefits stop. Clear, grounded, and civic-minded, this is how policy meets real life.
