Rep. Costa Statement on Court Ordering Trump Administration to Release Full SNAP Benefits in November
FRESNO, Calif. - Congressman Jim Costa (CA-21), senior member of the House Agriculture Committee, released the following statement in response to the recent order by Judge John McConnell of the District of Rhode Island to the Trump Administration to fully fund and issue SNAP benefits by Friday, November 7, 2025.
"Today's court order to fully fund Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits in November reinforces what I've said for weeks: in the richest country in the world, it is outrageous that our President would allow millions of Americans to go hungry. The Trump Administration has both the resources and the authority to fully fund SNAP for November,"said Congressman Costa.
