  21. #Maine #GovernorJanetMills releases $1.25 million to help #FoodBanks respond to #SNAP losses

    Mills also has not ruled out calling a special session of the Legislature so roughly 170,000 Mainers don’t lose federal food assistance.

    by Randy Billings. October 30, 2025

    FALMOUTH — "Gov. Janet Mills said Wednesday that her administration is releasing an additional $1.25 million in funding for food pantries and anti-hunger programs in a bid to keep nearly 170,000 low-income Maine families from losing assistance during the federal government shutdown.

    "Mills said the funding would be distributed through the #GoodShepherdFoodBank and the #AreaAgenciesOnAging to support programs such as #MealsOnWheels and other anti-hunger organizations.

    " 'When the federal government fails, Maine will not,' Mills said in a written statement. 'When challenges arise, Maine people step up.'

    "Mills is using $1 million from the governor’s contingency account and the John T. Gorman Foundation is providing $250,000. The Portland nonprofit noted that 55,000 children could lose food assistance.

    "Heather Paquette, president of Good Shepherd, said in a written statement that the funding will help support nearly 600 food pantries and other partner organizations across the state.

    " 'Our partners on the front lines are facing an overwhelming need for food right now and these funds will go to work immediately to help ensure everyone in Maine has access to the food they need to feed themselves and their families during this uncertain time,' Paquette said.

    [...]

    "Some other states are also announcing emergency funding for food banks and food assistance programs in anticipation of the loss of SNAP benefits. #Minnesota, for example, has announced $4 million for food assistance programs, and #NewYork is committing $30 million."

  32. Also I was denied personal care and #mealsonwheels by the state because I "don't have a physical #disability?" Well yes I am depressed because I'm bedridden from #cfs not vice versa which they're claiming. My doctor even wrote in my medical file I need the help. It's such 90s thinking that #MeCfs is a mental health condition but yet here we are. It means to get a shower and not lose my apartment due to my kitchen floor being dirty or bathroom or a fucking basic level of clean because I can't sweep or mop it, I have to pay for it from my #SSI $963 a month. These need to be done at least every week.

  37. @knittingknots2 All the food at the local #mealsonwheels comes from nations Trump sanctioned and NONE OF IT is US produced, except the milk cartons.

    Also note I wont eat the food. It seems to be for people mothballed in nursing homes expected to die shortly. The fish is DISGUSTING. It costs the local 👉NGO-FRANCHISE👈 of MoW 15 bucks to deliver that. The local #foodnotbombs serves FRESH HEALTHY MEALS to EVERYONE for a buck a meal.

    MAYBE WE SHOULD DITCH OUR 'GOVERNMENT' and DO IT OURSELVES?
