Wic no i need that my fiance makes to get food stamps. an what was that i heard about passports i need that too to go on my trip to mexico sometime soon
Medicaid mail and law enforcement are not effected. Things like national parks are closed
No WIC? WHY? Do they know how expensive formula is? What about breast pumps? If government is shutting down why are they still getting paid? They need to take care of their people. This is bs.
Aaww they're really cutting off Wic?? Thats how I was gonna get my breast pump, those things are pretty expensive :/
I don't know you mite have to call tomorrow and make ask
What if you already have WIC checks for october can they still be used?
And they want us to be proud to be americans
Wow they are closing down lake mead!!
I drink lactaid too ); that stuff is $4 for a half gallon by itself so wic helps A LOT with that. Hopefully the government decides to grow up and act like adults.
Yea its really messed up because i know how much wic does help families especially if you have a child on formula when my first born was on formula wic was very helpful and now that they are closing it i can only imagine what some families are going through
Yea WIC helped alot with formula it's just crazy!
Wow. No wic? That's ridiculous. Thats the only extra food we get in the household along with formula and we make too much money for foodstamps. Real cute, america.
Wow this is crazy WIC helped alot of women and single women out there. And good thing food stamps and medicad is still going because alot of families would be struggling just to make ends meet and to feet their kids. And good thing the military would still be getting paid because they do a damn good job and risk their life everyday!
Thanks ladies for telling me what's going on!
Yes our government has chosen to shut down but medicaid and foodstamp will still be opened but they are closing wic
The government has officially SHUTDOWN! Good thing is the only major affect is to those of us who receive WIC. I keeping hearing that it will affect us in only that way but not sure how true it is.
To the ladies in the military or with husbands in the military you will not be affected. Obama released a statement saying military personnel will be payed on time so don't stress yourselves out.
They just passed a bill to keep military pay in effect even thru the shutdown :)
Mainly military families have to worry depending on how long this last unfortunately. Uh but the politicians still get paid..it sickens me
Yupp, so military personnel, such as my husband will not be recieving a paycheck!
Lol there will still be government. Just no funding...
The shutdown also won't affect any medical programs provided by the U.S. Department.
Just found that so that's good to know
There's no way the government can be "shut down" really. Unless we turn to communism.
Wow hope they figure out something fast!
Did some research and found that most likely medicaid and food Assistance(food stamps) should be ok. WIC will most likely be out of business, and probably very quickly.
