10:05Now PlayingThe Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to take up their request to suspend any court orders requiring it to spend more money to fully fund SNAP.
A federal judge denied the administration's request earlier on Friday, and left the order in place.
LiveNOW's Christina Evans spoke about the legal battle with former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani.
BACKSTORY:
A federal judge in Rhode Island ordered the Trump administration Thursday to find the money to fully fund SNAP benefits for November.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge John J. McConnell Jr. on Thursday was in response to a challenge from cities and nonprofits complaining that the administration was only offering to cover 65% of the maximum benefit. The government said it will rely on $4.65 billion on emergency funding.
The Trump administration said last month that it would not pay benefits at all for November because of the federal shutdown.
The dispute affects roughly 1 in 8 Americans who rely on SNAP, leaving many uncertain about when or how much assistance they will receive during the shutdown.
