Administration Appeals to Supreme Court After Unsuccessful Bid to Stop Food Stamp Payment Directive
Last Friday, just moments after a US appeals court determined that the government is required to fully fund food stamp benefits, the administration turned to the supreme court in a additional effort to halt the ruling.
A short time later, the highest court issued an temporary injunction immediately suspending complete nutrition assistance funds, which approximately 42 million Americans rely on to feed their families.
“Legal counsel will not stop fighting, day and night, to support and promote the president's policies,” a senior official declared on online platforms around 9:30pm in Washington.
Administration officials had requested the US appeals court to overturn a judicial decision that it provide this month's complete food stamp benefits during a federal closure, and was denied that afternoon.

Subsequent to that appeal to stop was denied, the White House sought help from the supreme court in a additional attempt to prevent the directive to pay for food stamp payments.
