Klobuchar Applauds Court Ruling on SNAP Funding

Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Ranking Member of the Senate Ag Committee, applauded a District Court ruling that the Trump administration is required to provide November SNAP benefits to Americans in need. “The decision confirms what we’ve said all week: The administration is choosing not to feed Americans in need, despite being legally required to do so,” Klobuchar said. “The Court was clear that the administration is required to use those contingency funds as necessary for the SNAP program, and there’s no excuse to withhold food assistance from Americans.” She also said if the White House decides not to issue SNAP despite the court ruling, it would be a purely political decision, not a legal one. Klobuchar also joined the Democratic caucus in introducing the “Keep SNAP and WIC Funded Act of 2025,” which would prevent the administration from withholding available funds for the SNAP and WIC (wick) Programs.
