Republicans say funding for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, benefits -- formerly known as food stamps -- will run out on Nov. 1 due to the federal government shutdown, and there's nothing they can do about it. Democrats say there's a contingency fund that could and should continue to fund regular SNAP benefits.
