The Department of Agriculture posted a notice on its website that Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits will not be issued on Nov. 1 amid the government shutdown, saying “Bottom line, the well has run dry.”

SNAP, often referred to as "food stamps," serves roughly 42 million low-income Americans.

SNAP has traditionally been entirely federally funded, but is administered by states. That means the shutdown's impact on SNAP and when benefits will start to dry up will vary by state.

The message at the top of the USDA blames Democrats for the funding lapse, saying they “can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance.”

Democrats have said they won’t vote for a continuing resolution to fund the government and end the shutdown until the Republican-controlled Congress agrees to extend the pandemic era Affordable Care Act subsidies.

The Pentagon confirmed Friday it has accepted an anonymous $130 million donation to help pay troops if the government shutdown continues -- a bill expected to cost some $6.8 billion in total.

A statement from Pentagon chief spokesman Sean Parnell said the department on Thursday "accepted an anonymous donation of $130 million under its general gift acceptance authority. The donation was made on the condition that it be used to offset the cost of Service members' salaries and benefits."

There are about 2 million service members who risk going without a paycheck if the shutdown stretches on. Earlier this month, the Trump administration shifted money around in the Pentagon's nearly $1 trillion budget to cover the troops' payroll.

President Donald Trump, speaking to reporters from the White House on Thursday, first revealed the $130 million donation saying it came from "a friend of mine" who didn't want to be named.

"That's what I call a patriot," Trump said.

The House will officially be out of session again next week amid the government shutdown -- scrapping votes for the fifth week in a row. The lower chamber held its last vote on Sept. 19.

During the Friday afternoon pro forma session, the clerk read a message from the speaker of the House designating Monday, Oct. 27 through Sunday, Nov. 2 as a "district work period."

Speaker Mike Johnson has kept his chamber on a 48-hour notice return, meaning the House will be out unless there is Senate action to resolve the government shutdown.

There are no committee hearings or markups scheduled in the House next week.

More than 500,000 federal workers are missing their first full paycheck on Friday as the government shutdown hits Day 24.

The Senate is out, so this shutdown will continue into Monday.

Trump said he will not meet with congressional Democratic leaders to negotiate and end to the shutdown until after the government is funded.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Tuesday that he and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries "reached out to the president today and urged him to sit down and negotiate with us to resolve the health care crisis, address it, and end the shutdown." Schumer pointed out that Trump is leaving for Asia on Friday and said he wanted to meet with the president before then.

Trump said that he would meet with Democrats and even before he leaves for Asia after being asked by reporters, but said the government needs to be funded first.

"You know, the country is so hot right now, and they've never voted against, you know, continuation. They've never voted against. They've never done that. They're doing this because they have Trump derangement syndrome," Trump said.

"But I will -- I would love to meet -- I would like to meet with both of them, but, I -- I said one little caveat. I will only meet if they let the country open. They have to let the country open. The people want to go back to work. They want to be served. They want to — they, they need the services of some people. And a lot of people need the money, the payroll. So, I'll do it as soon as they open up the country," Trump added.
