In California, WIC will remain open and fully operational through November. Families should keep their scheduled WIC appointments and use their WIC cards for groceries as usual. Find updates at: myfamily.wic.ca.gov/Home/…. #WIC #WICWorks #FundWIC

".. we have this risk of .. people really getting very confused and thinking that .. they shouldn’t use their benefits,” said Hard. “That loss of trust with families is really devastating and it’s really hard to get it back.” @politico.com #Shutdown #WIC www.politico.com/news/202….

President Trump’s 2026 budget would cut #WIC food benefits by more than $1.3 billion for more than 5 million young children and new & expecting parents with low incomes by slashing their fruit & vegetable benefits, despite the Administration’s stated goal of improving child health.

Washington's #WIC program is still operating. Please continue to: ✅ Use your benefits as usual ✅ Attend your appointments ✅ Access services like nutrition education & breastfeeding support ⚠️ Due to the federal shutdown, some local WIC clinics may temporarily close, but many will remain open
