Union members have set up a food pantry in Washington, D.C., as the government shutdown extends beyond 30 days and federal SNAP funding nears its end. The pantry provides canned goods to the public and is collecting donations for local food banks that are supporting laid-off federal workers. Some of those affected include members of the IAM Union and NFFE-IAM.
