Following Bridget Huber's reporting for the Food & Environment Reporting Network (FERN) on the end of emergency SNAP benefits, food writer Corby Kummer joined Boston Public Radio to discuss an impending “hunger cliff” that could dramatically increase food insecurity in the U.S. In the early days of the pandemic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) temporarily strengthened SNAP, with households under the program receiving at least $95 extra per month. But 12 Republican-led states that have ended their pandemic emergency declarations without placing “a narrower public health emergency declaration in place,” thereby ending additional SNAP benefits provided by the USDA. The Biden administration recently extended the National Public Health Emergency, which was originally declared in March 2020, to mid-July — continuing emergency SNAP benefits for states that still have public health emergency declarations in place. “People who have gotten used to the increased pandemic benefits on SNAP for food assistance are suddenly seeing the monthly bump in their SNAP benefits go — in the case of a woman in Des Moines, Iowa — from $250 a month to $20 a month,” Kummer said. “The USDA, which runs SNAP, issued 4.1 billion in emergency allotments to more than 19 million households. This February, the most recent data available was $2.8 billion as opposed to $4.1 billion in emergency allotments. [That's] 15 million households, not 19 million,” Kummer continued. “So you're already looking at billions cut: at least 4 million fewer households [are] getting it, and we can only imagine what that's going to be in the months to come.” Kummer is the executive director of the Food and Society policy program at the Aspen Institute, a senior editor at The Atlantic and a senior lecturer at the Tufts Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy.

Vandaag spreken we over de Amerikaanse opiatencrisis. Al sinds jaar en dag hangen tienduizenden Amerikanen op dagelijkse basis dicht boven geestverruimende dampen, dat is an sich niks nieuws. Maar met de komst van een paar hele bijzondere middeltjes kondigde president Trump aan dat de opium crisis nu officieel een National Public Health Emergency is. Deze week bekijken we dat eens van dichterbij. Om onze show draaiende te houden hebben we jouw hulp nodig. Het is niet veel maar alle kleine beetjes zouden ons echt gigantisch helpen.

If the Republic takes this step, should it happen here north of the border?

The National Public Health Emergency team has been meeting today to review recent trends and data on Covid-19 and they’ve now made their recommendations to the Government. The recommendations will include a reduction in the number of social visitors to people's homes. It may mean that only six visitors, from two other households, instead of three other households, will be permitted. Tighter visitor restrictions may also be introduced in residential facilities, to protect vulnerable people. And the measures would be introduced for three weeks in Dublin if accepted by the Government. The opening of all pubs in Dublin on 21 September will also depend on the spread of the virus in the capital at that point. So if cases continue on the same trajectory in Dublin, then the pubs, or wet pubs as they’re now known will not open. Our reporter Barry Whyte has been to Dublin 15, an area which could be hit by the restrictions....

4.5 Million SARS-COV-2 cases worldwide with 1,442,924 in the United States of that 11,216 in Alabama and 244 in Baldwin County (with 8 deaths). The Ripp Report: Catalyst Baggage, The US Supreme Court this week took up 11 cases on Writs of Cert: requests for the court to accept 11 cases arising from lower court decisions involving plaintiffs seeking redress for violations of their civil rights. In 10 of the cases — in all but one, the government defendants were in law enforcement — the civil rights claims were dismissed because courts granted the defendants qualified immunity. In one case the courts denied immunity. Additionally- Wisconsin Supreme Court rules their Governor can’t maintain his stay at home order, over the top judicial activism. Alabama SB 161 use of Cares Act (Sen Doug Jones burns his time asking questions about safeguarding the Cares Act Money from his home legislature), farmers are destroying pigs because there are not workers at the slaughterhouses, University of West Florida Staff member has Covid-19, Auburn says it will have football and class as usual, Joe Rogan moving to Texas? Who cares? Rep. Dan Crenshaw (Will Ainsworth tweeted at Tesla this week as well after Elon says he’s leaving California if they don’t open up), Sen Richard Burr (R-NC) resigned from his position as the Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee when it was revealed he was the subject of an FBI investigation into insider trading related to information he used to profit before Sars-Cov-2 was announced as a National Public Health Emergency (think what would Paul Hubbard do?), Mississippi casinos open May 21, Gadsden State is getting back to class, 401 new cases on Thursday May 14 2020, highest number of cases reported in one day in Alabama.

President Trump declared the opioid crisis a “national public health emergency” last week. The difference in calling the epidemic a public health emergency instead of a national crisis is prodigious. Congressman Tim Ryan (D-Ohio, 13), who represents one of the hardest-hit areas in the opioid crisis, says the money from the national public health emergency fund could barely cover the funding for one of his counties, let alone the nation. “There’s no money,” says Ryan. “We literally need $10 billion to fund all of the programs.” The congressman discussed the administration’s response to the opioid epidemic and Republicans' push for tax reform. Author and historian Lamar Waldron talks about some of the nuggets he unearthed from the recently-released JFK documents.

President Trump declared the opioid crisis a “national public health emergency” this week, directing a variety of federal agencies and administrators to focus on fighting this issue. Declaring the opioid crisis a “national public health emergency” instead of a “national emergency” makes a significant difference in sources of funding, administrative jurisdiction, and actions that Congress can take. Jeremy Slevin, associate director of advocacy for the Center for American Progress' Poverty to Prosperity program, details the pitfalls the Trump administration faces in fighting the opioid crisis. Saul Anuzis, former chairman of the Michigan Republican Party, talks about a reasonable and constitutional path to change the electoral college into a winner-take-all system through the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
