Snap Judgment

“There is no doubt that the six billion dollars in contingency funds are appropriated funds that are without a doubt necessary to carry out the program’s operation. The shutdown of the government through funding doesn’t do away with SNAP. It just does away with the funding of it. There could be no greater necessity than the prohibition across the board of funds for the program’s operations.” Federal judge orders Trump administration to pay SNAP benefits out of contingency fund. Now, we’ll have to see if the administration actually pays out the money authorized by one branch of government and ordered released by another. After all, they’re the ones who came up with the idea of starving the poorest Americans to score political points. It took a federal judge to say families should still be fed.
