As the government shutdown continues, we urge Congress and the White House to come together to fully fund WIC. Temporary solutions to fill funding gaps are helpful but not a replacement for long-term solutions.
It’s past time for Congress to do what’s right—to fund the federal government and programs like WIC. This includes restoring access for military families, who have faced the added stress of WIC closures on certain bases during the shutdown. 🗣️

Mientras continúa el cierre del gobierno, instamos al Congreso y a la Casa Blanca a que colaboren para financiar completamente el programa WIC. Las soluciones temporales para cubrir la falta de fondos son útiles, pero no reemplazan las soluciones a largo plazo.
Ya es hora de que el Congreso haga lo correcto: financiar al gobierno federal y programas como WIC. Esto incluye restablecer el acceso para las familias de militares, quienes han enfrentado el estrés adicional del cierre de WIC en ciertas bases durante el cierre. 🗣️

Veterans Day was initially known as Armistice Day, established on November 11, 1918, to commemorate the end of World War I with the signing of the armistice, or a temporary truce. In 1954, the name was changed to Veterans Day to honor all veterans of the United States.
We appreciate all veterans and their families for their sacrifice.
