Marcia Fudge (not Martha) is the one who introduced the "Pandemic-EBT" act (H.R.6200 - Pandemic EBT Act of 2020) within minutes of President Trump declaring a pandemic (exactly four years ago today).
It's almost like she knew there would be a pandemic ahead of time. We know congress members don't write their own bills, they have K Street interns to do that for them. But those interns were ready. They knew a pandemic would be declared on that day.
The biggest smoking gun to me is that in California the EBT cards are made of yellow plastic but the P-EBT cards were made of white plastic meaning they didn't come from the same stock. Why then did the white Pandemic EBT cards have a copyright date on the back of the card saying 2017?
Thank you for catching that (both the name error and the Pandemic-EBT Act)! Great questions about the cards...
