This past Friday, immediately following a US appeals court decided that the administration needs to pay for nutritional assistance benefits, the federal government turned to the nation's highest court in a additional effort to block the directive.

Within hours, the highest court handed down an temporary injunction provisionally halting entire nutrition assistance payments, which nearly 42 thousand people depend on to feed their families.

“Our attorneys continue working, around the clock, to protect and further the president's priorities,” the attorney general stated on social media shortly after 9:30pm local time.
