Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson tonight issued a stay that lets the regime continue not making SNAP payments, at least until an appeals court in Boston issues its own ruling on whether to let the government keep not helping very low-income people buy food while a lawsuit over the practice continues.
Jackson issued her ruling in her gatekeeper role for cases coming out of the First Circuit, which includes Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
In her ruling, Jackson acknowledged that at 6:08 p.m., the First Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson tonight issued a stay that lets the regime continue not making SNAP payments, at least until an appeals court in Boston issues its own ruling on whether to let the government keep not helping very low-income people buy food while a lawsuit over the practice continues. Jackson issued her ruling in her gatekeeper role for cases coming out of the First Circuit, which includes Massachusetts and Rhode Island. In her ruling, Jackson acknowledged that at 6:08 p.m., the First Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston upheld a Rhode Island federal judge's rulings that the government needed to find a way to fund SNAP during the regime's shutdown - but she noted the appeals court also said it needed more time to consider whether to stay implementation of the rulings to let the regime file a more detailed appeal. Brown then issued her stay while the appeals court considers its own stay - plus some time after it does rule: This administrative stay will terminate forty-eight hours after the First Circuit’s resolution of the pending motion, which the First Circuit is expected to issue with dispatch. Although the regime had said earlier in the day it would abide by the Rhode Island rulings and start funding SNAP again despite its shutdown of the government, it also filed an appeal with the Supreme Court.
