White House Appeals to Top Court After Unsuccessful Attempt to Block Food Stamp Payment Order

Last Friday, shortly following a US appeals court determined that the administration is required to pay for food stamp benefits, the administration appealed to the nation's highest court in a further effort to prevent the ruling.

Within hours, the highest court released an urgent ruling provisionally halting entire Snap food aid funds, which nearly 42 thousand people rely on to put food on the table.

“Government lawyers continue battling, day and night, to protect and further our priorities,” the attorney general stated on digital channels just after 9:30pm in Washington.

Administration officials had requested the appellate court to block a court ruling requiring them to distribute the upcoming full monthly Snap payments amid a federal closure, and faced refusal hours later.

The High Court Releases Temporary Injunction Blocking Complete Food Stamp Payments

The supreme court's ruling came after the government petitioned a US appellate court this past Friday to block a judicial directive that it issue November’s entire food stamp aid during a US federal government shutdown.

Subsequent to that appeal to block faced refusal, the White House turned to the high court in a additional attempt to halt the order to completely finance Snap food aid disbursements.
