Daniel Schreiber, CEO and co-founder of Lemonade, discusses the insurance app's $120 million Series C funding round. Lemonade is planning on expanding globally with the new round of cash. Schreiber says Lemonade is trying to reinvent insurance. Lemonade wants to make customers happy, not make money by denying claims. Schreiber explains distrust is endemic in the insurance agency, calling it a "trillion dollar problem." He also touches on Lemonade's decision to stop insuring assault rifles after the Las Vegas massacre in October, saying it was a common sense choice to make.

Small grocers and convenience stores feel an impact as customers go without SNAP benefits
Some small grocery stores and neighborhood convenience stores are eager for the U.S. government shutdown to end and for their customers to start receiving federal food aid again. Late last month, the Trump administration froze funding for the SNAP benefits that about 42 million Americans use to buy groceries. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says about 74% of the assistance was spent last year at superstores like Walmart and supermarkets like Kroger.

A former director of the United Nations World Food Program says SNAP is not only a social safety net for families but a local economic engine that supports neighborhood businesses.
