Campbell, AGs Seek Court Order to Keep SNAP Benefits Flowing
Boston — Attorney General Andrea Campbell and 22 of her counterparts filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Agriculture, alleging the agency is using the ongoing federal government shutdown to unlawfully suspend the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
The program delivers food aid to 40 million Americans and is at risk on November. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts, aims to maintain the flow of SNAP benefits.
Senate Democrats have repeatedly rejected stopgap spending measures that could enable the government to reopen and prevent any disruption in the delivery of SNAP benefits, said Secretary Brooke Rollins in a TV interview.
