Trump Demands States 'Undo' SNAP Benefits

Legal Battle Over Food Assistance: Trump Administration Demands States Undo SNAP BenefitsThe Trump administration is now demanding that states reverse full SNAP benefits paid out last week, causing concern among more than two dozen states. The demand comes after the Supreme Court halted earlier court orders allowing these payments. States warn of operational disruptions if not reimbursed for authorized benefits. Nonprofit groups and Democratic attorneys general had sued to keep the program going, winning favorable rulings last week. However, the Trump administration was hesitant to reimburse states for initial payments. For example, Wisconsin loaded benefits onto cards for seven hundred thousand residents but may run out of money by Monday, potentially facing demands to return hundreds of millions of dollars.
