President Donald Trump is reportedly ignoring federal court orders by halting full Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for recipients during the ongoing government shutdown. This decision has raised concerns among advocates for low-income families who rely on these benefits for food assistance.
The suspension of SNAP benefits comes as the government remains closed, affecting millions of Americans who depend on the program. Critics argue that this action undermines the legal obligations set by federal courts regarding the distribution of food assistance.
Trump has stated that SNAP benefits will resume only after the government reopens, which adds uncertainty for those who are currently receiving aid. The situation has drawn attention to the broader implications of the government shutdown on essential services and support systems.
