White House Seeks Help from Top Court After Failed Bid to Halt Snap Payment Directive
This past Friday, shortly after a federal appeals court determined that the administration is required to fully fund Snap food aid benefits, the White House turned to the supreme court in a new bid to block the ruling.
A short time later, the top US court released an urgent ruling provisionally halting full nutrition assistance benefits, which nearly 42 thousand people count on to feed their families.
“Legal counsel persist in working, around the clock, to defend and advance our agenda,” the top legal officer declared on online platforms around 9:30pm local time.
White House staff had asked the appellate court to overturn a court ruling requiring them to provide the upcoming complete nutritional assistance amid a federal closure, and was denied that afternoon.
US Supreme Court Issues Temporary Injunction Blocking Complete Nutrition Assistance Disbursements
The top court's decision followed the government petitioned a national appeals court on Friday to block a judge’s order mandating they issue November’s complete Snap aid throughout a federal closure.
After that request to halt was denied, the government turned to the nation's top court in a additional attempt to block the order to completely finance nutrition assistance disbursements.
