Supreme Court Allows Trump to Block Food Aid

“The Supreme Court on Friday granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown,” the AP reports.

New York Times: “Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson has temporarily paused a lower court order that had required the Trump administration to fully fund food stamps during the government shutdown. In the order, Justice Jackson said she had issued the pause, called an administrative stay, to give the appeals court that will rule on the case more time to consider it.”
