“Giving SNAP recipients the option to order online reduces the spread of COVID-19 and keeps families safe,” Belt (D-Centreville) said. “I applaud our state’s leaders who made it possible for our SNAP recipients to continue to feed their families in a more resourceful way.

05282019CM0356EAST ST. LOUIS – After noticing that the Metro East COVID-19 positive cases and fatalities were declining, State Senator Christopher Belt insisted that Gov. Pritzker’s administration move the southern region into the next phase of the recovery plan, which will open many small businesses such as retail stores.

“Over the past several weeks, our families have been following the Stay At Home Order and numbers have been declining, so many Metro East legislators feel our region should be rewarded with moving to the next phase,” Belt said. “The recovery phase will remove the financial hardship that many small businesses are facing and lead to a path of sustaining the Metro East economy.”
