Biden will do something illegal like extend the rent moratorium.

But will not do anything for seniors. And of course the media will not make a big deal about this.

If this was Trump it would be protest and all over the news.

It appears it's governors not the President who are to blame. From your link:

The passage of the American Rescue Plan extended a 15% increase in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (commonly known as SNAP) benefits from June through the end of September. But some recipients will or have seen their benefits expire earlier as many governors allow state-level emergency declarations to expire, which are needed to get the extra pandemic aid.

Just really more of a point. If this was Trump the media and Libs would say it was his fault. And would see protest about it ending.

Just like stay at home and mask where also controlled by the states. But you never heard about that.

Same thing with rent relief. States where given the funds over a year ago. Still have only handed out 10%.

Biden and the media also try to blame this on Trump.

And still have seen some protest to extend the rent moratorium. But because Biden is in office. Not one protest about why it has taken so long to hand out the funds. That would pay LL and not even be an issue.

In the first round of money from Trump. And example. PA waited so long and made the process so difficult. They had to divert the majority of rent relief funs to their prison system. Instead of for the rent relief it was intended for.
But of course still no protest. They did not want to pay protestors for things like this.

This thread will get moved or closed, but I feel these benefits need to stop. Sorry, but there are TONS of good jobs and people are begging for workers to return. The small businesses are just getting crushed and all that will be left are big chains.

You get an F in reading comprehension. From your link:

The passage of the American Rescue Plan extended a 15% increase in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (commonly known as SNAP) benefits from June through the end of September. But some recipients will or have seen their benefits expire earlier as many governors allow state-level emergency declarations to expire, which are needed to get the extra pandemic aid.

GOVENORS, got it?

And by "rent moratorium," I assume you mean eviction moratorium. Do you believe that low income seniors never get evicted? Unfortunately, seniors get evicted all the time. So, according to you, seniors should get food stamps but not a kitchen to store and cook the food that the SNAP program makes available to them.

Get back to us when you have addressed the strange inconsistencies in what you think seniors should and should not have.
