Administration Appeals to High Court Following Failed Attempt to Halt Food Stamp Payment Order

Last Friday, immediately following a US appeals court determined that the administration must pay for food stamp payments, the White House sought intervention from the US top court in a additional effort to halt the directive.

Not long after, the top US court handed down an temporary injunction provisionally halting full nutrition assistance benefits, which approximately 42 million individuals count on to feed their families.

“Government lawyers will not stop battling, continuously, to protect and further the president's policies,” the attorney general declared on social media just after 9:30pm local time.

White House staff had petitioned the appellate court to block a court ruling that it issue November’s full monthly nutritional payments during a government funding lapse, and had their request rejected that afternoon.

The High Court Releases Temporary Injunction Stopping Complete Food Stamp Payments

The top court's ruling was issued after the administration requested a national appeals court this past Friday to stop a judge’s order that it distribute the upcoming full monthly food stamp assistance throughout a US federal government shutdown.

Subsequent to that appeal to block got rejected, the administration turned to the supreme court in a new bid to prevent the directive to fully fund nutrition assistance disbursements.
