Thx to @BonnieStJohn, her daughter Darcy and Leslie Lewin of @SeedsofPeace for joining our #offthesidelines book club discussion tonight!
Join me & @VoteVets to urge the Senate to restore $4.1b in #SNAP funding so our hardworking families don't go hungry http://t.co/fmqyNTkoKR
As a mother & lawmaker, watching our children, seniors & brave vets go hungry is something I will not stand for, nor should my colleagues.
These cuts to #SNAP prgrm will take $90/mo. out of the pockets of hardworking families, impacting our children, seniors & veterans the most.
Spoke on the floor of the Senate today to urge my colleagues to support my #SNAP #farmbill amndmnt to restore $4.1b in food stamp funding.
Plsd Pres Obama has declared state of emergency in #Oklahoma so federal resources can be deployed. #NY stands ready to support people of #OK
V impt @HuffingtonPost piece about how $4.1b in cuts to #SNAP program in #farmbill will impact our brave #veterans: http://t.co/fvZIIJWc2S
My thoughts & prayers are with all the families impacted by the tornado in Moore, Oklahoma yesterday. The loss is truly heartbreaking.
There are still far too many veterans who are waiting far too long to secure the @DeptVetAffairs benefits they've earned. We must do better.
V plsd Marine vet Anthony Pike is getting the help he needs from the VA. Thx @NYDailyNews for highlighting his story. http://t.co/egZ6XAhU6I
My #SNAP amndmnt is fully paid for by ending federal subsidies to hugely profitable crop insurance cos. Would not add 1 cent to the deficit.
Senate debate on #farmbill begins this week: http://t.co/LlqkCRgOWS I'll be introducing an amendment to restore $4.1b in #SNAP food stamp $$

Student loan debt has tripled since 2004. To ease this burden, borrowers should be able to refinance the way our businesses & homeowners do.
