White House Appeals to High Court After Unsuccessful Attempt to Stop Food Stamp Aid Directive
This past Friday, immediately following a US appeals court ruled that the government needs to completely finance nutritional assistance payments, the White House turned to the nation's highest court in a further attempt to prevent the order.
Not long after, the supreme court issued an temporary injunction temporarily blocking complete nutrition assistance benefits, which close to 42 thousand people rely on to feed their families.
“Legal counsel continue battling, day and night, to support and promote the president's agenda,” a senior official declared on online platforms shortly after 9:30pm ET.
Government representatives had petitioned the US appeals court to overturn a judicial decision that it issue the upcoming full monthly nutritional assistance amid a government funding lapse, and had their request rejected later the same day.
