政府停摆期间部分SNAP福利将恢复发放

摘要

特朗普政府宣布在持续的政府停摆期间,根据联邦法院命令,部分资助SNAP福利。

特朗普政府宣布计划在持续的政府停摆期间,依据联邦法院命令,部分资助11月份的补充营养援助计划(SNAP)。美国农业部(USDA)将利用约46.5亿美元的紧急储备资金,覆盖该计划每月约80亿美元费用的一半。该计划服务近4200万美国人。

此决定是在马萨诸塞州和罗德岛的联邦法官下令使用紧急资金继续发放SNAP福利后作出的。此前,农业部曾表示由于资金限制,11月1日将不会发放福利。

农业部已通知各州准备发放部分福利,尽管具体金额和时间尚不确定。SNAP卡的充值过程需要州和联邦机构的协调,某些州可能需要长达两周的时间。

目前政府停摆已进入第35天,导致食品银行需求增加,SNAP受益人的食品安全问题日益突出。农业部部分资助该计划的决定旨在缓解部分困难,但福利的全面恢复仍取决于政府停摆的解决。
