Supreme Court pauses order that Trump administration must pay full SNAP benefits
The Supreme Court temporarily paused a federal judges order that the Trump administration must pay full SNAP benefits to 42 million Americans for November by the end of the day.
The move came hours after the 1st Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals denied the administrations emergency request to halt the order, which relates to food stamp benefits.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson pushed the appeals court to quickly issue a ruling on whether the administration deserved to have the order stayed further while the appeals court considers its legality.

I don’t think SNAP should exist during a shutdown. A shutdown is a shutdown. But Congressional salaries should also be suspended entirely. Presedntial. Secret service. Janitorial stuff. No toilet paper in Congress or the White House. Nothing.
