NC Households Get Full SNAP Benefits After Shutdown

North Carolinas Department of Health and Human Services announces that full SNAP benefits for November will be available by Friday for 600,000 households, following the resolution of the federal government shutdown. This means nearly 1.4 million people will receive their SNAP assistance. The uncertainty surrounding SNAP benefits nationwide, including changing guidance from the USDA and lawsuits, has been resolved, with North Carolinas Attorney General stating that it was wrong for the federal government to use children as political pawns during the shutdown.
