Fox News is backing the Trump administration’s decision to reverse its own original guidance, as well as precedent from President Donald Trump’s first term, by refusing to pay out Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (also known as food stamps) in November. Instead, the pro-Trump echo chamber is blaming Democrats for the administration jeopardizing food assistance to over 40 million Americans, most of whom are children or seniors, who rely on the program.
A contingency fund exists that could pay for at least partial monthly benefits in the event of an emergency, which the Trump administration previously argued would include a lapse in appropriations.
