Trump Vows to Fund SNAP 'As Soon As Possible' After Court Decision on Shutdown
President Donald Trump vowed to 'fund SNAP as soon as possible' if a court allows it, blasting Democrats over a shutdown delay caused by their opposition to releasing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program payments.
President Donald Trump vowed to 'fund SNAP as soon as possible' if a court allows, blasting Democrats over the delay in releasing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payments during the government shutdown. The administration has asked federal courts to clarify whether it can legally release SNAP payments. Trump's comments came amid the ongoing government shutdown, which was partly caused by disagreements over funding for the program. The delay is due to a dispute between Democrats and Republicans over the program's funding.
