The Supreme Court on Tuesday extended a short-term order allowing the Trump administration to continue withholding full food stamp payments for November, a move aimed at buying time as Congress works toward reopening the federal government.<\/p>\n

The decision came as part of a fast-moving emergency appeal over Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits, which provide aid to more than 40 million Americans. Several related lawsuits in lower courts could soon be rendered moot if lawmakers reach an agreement to end the shutdown, CNN\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n

For now, the \u201cadministrative stay\u201d issued by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson last Friday remains in place, blocking a lower-court order that would have required the administration to deliver full federal food benefits. In a brief unsigned order Tuesday, the Court said the stay would be extended through the end of the day Thursday. Jackson dissented from the extension.<\/p>\n

The spiraling legal fight over food stamps has become one of the most tangible impacts of the shutdown, alongside widespread flight cancellations and government service disruptions.<\/p>\n

Advocates for SNAP recipients told the Court earlier Tuesday that millions of Americans have \u201cnow gone ten days without the help they need to afford food.\u201d They warned that children and families across the country are struggling to eat as the dispute drags on.<\/p>\n

Nearly 42 million Americans receive food stamps throughout each month, with about 27 million scheduled to get their allotments by Monday, according to Code for America, a nonprofit that partners with states on safety-net programs.<\/p>\n

On average, households receive roughly $350 per month in benefits, but that money often runs out quickly.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration argued that the lower-court ruling had overstepped, forcing the U.S. Department of Agriculture to transfer nearly $4 billion between accounts. Justice Department lawyers said the order \u201cinjects the federal courts into the political branches\u2019 closing efforts to end this shutdown.\u201d<\/p>\n
