The SNAP program is wildly over-engineered to prevent fraud. Like the food stamps that came before them, EBT accounts are only good for certain groceries. You can’t even buy a hot meal.
A universal basic income system with regular money would be better, but more susceptible to this ugly rhetoric.

If Jackson or the full court hasn’t acted by then, the order that full payments be made goes back into effect.
But, there could be a further administrative stay (by Jackson or the full court) while they decide whether to grant a stay pending appeal.
And, the Senate deal could also moot the case.

Where are we at?
The order that USDA pay out full SNAP benefits for November is still on hold, but the appeals court denied DOJ’s request for a more extended stay.
As such, that triggers the 48-hour clock Justice Jackson set, at the end of which her administrative stay ends.

Judge Rikelman, a Biden appointee, writes the opinion, and notes a questionable argument of DOJ and the slipshod actions of USDA this past week.
These were points noted at Law Dork on Friday — www.lawdork.com/p/trump-admi... — and Sunday: www.lawdork.com/p/doj-says-f...

Justice Jackson temporarily blocks SNAP benefits order to allow appeals court to rule
DOJ asked SCOTUS for a stay as USDA said it was completing its process for making full payments. Update: Jackson's order came a little past 9 p.m.

Never relate to the burden of having a preexisting condition that thankfully could be treated under the ACA. Never relate to the Latinos being targeted by the Trump regime. Democratic Party needs a huge cleanup for a younger generation that expects a better world. Run to replace mediocrity.
