  • It would also then allow us to discuss whether the dinner table or wherever.

  • Thank you very much.

  • With the government shut down nearing the one month mark,

  • That's as many as one in eight people in the country.

  • Some states have said they're going to try and step up to fill the gap.

  • Others are still trying to figure out a plan.

  • And while the Department of Agriculture had signaled that it could use emergency funds to keep the benefits flowing,

  • it said in a memo on Friday that it will not tap into that reserve.
