Government Appeals to High Court Following Unsuccessful Bid to Stop Snap Aid Order

This past Friday, immediately after a national appellate court decided that the administration must pay for Snap food aid payments, the White House sought intervention from the supreme court in a new effort to prevent the order.

A short time later, the highest court handed down an temporary injunction temporarily blocking entire food stamp funds, which nearly 42 million individuals rely on to feed their families.

“Legal counsel will not stop fighting, day and night, to defend and advance the administration's priorities,” the top legal officer declared on online platforms just after 9:30pm ET.

White House staff had asked the appellate court to overturn a judge's order that it distribute the upcoming entire nutritional assistance during a US federal government shutdown, and faced refusal that afternoon.

The high court’s order was issued after the White House requested a US appellate court on Friday to block a judicial directive that it distribute the upcoming full monthly food stamp benefits throughout a US federal government shutdown.

After that request to block faced refusal, the White House sought help from the high court in a further effort to halt the order to pay for nutrition assistance disbursements.
