Government Turns to Top Court After Unsuccessful Bid to Block Food Stamp Payment Order
On Friday, immediately following a national appellate court ruled that the White House must pay for nutritional assistance benefits, the White House appealed to the nation's highest court in a new bid to block the order.
Not long after, the highest court handed down an emergency order immediately suspending entire Snap food aid funds, which nearly 42 hundred thousand individuals count on to feed their families.
“Legal counsel will not stop working, continuously, to support and promote the administration's policies,” the attorney general stated on social media around 9:30pm in Washington.
White House staff had petitioned the US appeals court to overturn a judicial decision mandating they provide this month's complete Snap assistance in the middle of a federal closure, and faced refusal later the same day.
US Supreme Court Issues Temporary Injunction Halting Complete Snap Food Aid Disbursements
The supreme court's decision was issued after the government requested a federal appeals court last Friday to block a judicial directive requiring them to distribute November’s full monthly nutritional assistance amid a federal closure.
After that request to halt got rejected, the White House sought help from the high court in a further attempt to prevent the order to fully fund nutrition assistance disbursements.
