Half a million families in Minnesota are facing delayed or reduced SNAP benefits.
A recent court ruling has required that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) utilize contingency funding and issue partial November benefits to the 42 million households who use SNAP each month across the country. While it is a relief that these contingency funds are being used, they are simply not enough to cover a full month of benefits. Nearly 500,000 Minnesotans are at risk of receiving reduced or delayed benefits. The USDA can and must transfer additional funds immediately to fully fund November SNAP benefits and ensure no family goes without enough food on their table.
Join us in calling on Congress to urge the Administration to fully fund November SNAP benefits today.
