Rep. Morgan McGarvey, U.S. Congressman representing Kentucky’s 3rd district since 2023, recently addressed issues related to SNAP funding, community service, and Veterans Day in a series of posts on his official Twitter account.
On November 10, 2025, McGarvey criticized former President Donald Trump regarding the expiration of SNAP funding. He wrote: “It’s been 10 days since Trump let SNAP funding expire.
He could feed our kids, seniors, and veterans today — instead, he’s begging SCOTUS to let him keep starving Americans.
Food should never be used as a weapon. Hungry kids are not political leverage. Fund SNAP now.”
Later that day, McGarvey highlighted his participation in a local Thanksgiving event organized by Councilwoman Barbara Shanklin. On November 10, he posted: “After a difficult week, I joined volunteers out in the cold to share turkeys and all the fixings for Thanksgiving dinner at Councilwoman Barbara Shanklin’s annual turkey giveaway.
Louisvillians show up to take care of each other, no matter what. I was honored to lend a hand.”
On Veterans Day, November 11, McGarvey called for recognition of veterans’ sacrifices and referenced his own family history: “This Veterans Day, please join me in recognizing the immense sacrifices our veterans and their families have made for our country.
I’m proud to be the grandson of three WWII veterans, and I will continue to honor their service today and every day.
We’ll keep fighting to make”
Morgan McGarvey succeeded John Yarmuth as representative for Kentucky’s 3rd congressional district in 2023 after previously serving both in the Kentucky House of Representatives from 2019 to 2023 and the Kentucky Senate from 2013 to 2023. Born in Louisville in 1979 where he currently resides with his family at age 43, McGarvey holds degrees from the University of Missouri (BA) and University of Kentucky College of Law (JD).
