Trump administration asks appeals court to immediately halt ruling on SNAP funding
A judge on Thursday ordered SNAP to be fully funded.

A group of local governments and nonprofits is urging an appeals court to keep in place an order requiring the Trump administration fully pay for November SNAP benefits.

The Trump administration has asked the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to issue an emergency stay of a judge’s ruling Thursday ordering the administration to fully fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program by today, saying they are saving additional funds to pay for child nutrition programs known as WIC.

The Trump administration requested that the appeals court issue a ruling by 4 p.m. ET today.
