White House Seeks Help from Top Court After Failed Bid to Block Snap Aid Directive
Last Friday, just moments after a national appellate court determined that the administration needs to pay for food stamp benefits, the White House appealed to the US top court in a further attempt to prevent the directive.
Not long after, the highest court handed down an emergency order temporarily blocking entire Snap food aid funds, which approximately 42 million Americans count on to put food on the table.
“Our attorneys will not stop fighting, continuously, to defend and advance the administration's agenda,” a senior official announced on online platforms around 9:30pm in Washington.
Administration officials had petitioned the US appeals court to block a court ruling that it provide the upcoming entire food stamp benefits in the middle of a government funding lapse, and was denied later the same day.
