Desiree shouldn't have to go through this. If Congress doesn't act tonight, we'll have thousands of victims like Desiree, who are victims of #EBTTheft with no way to get their $$$ back.

Hundreds of people shared quotes with @ThePropelApp about what it's like to have their benefits stolen. People like Megan deserve to have their benefits protected & deserve reimbursement if they're victims of #EBTtheft. Congress needs to extend reimbursement authority tonight.
