Despite two federal court rulings today, students in higher education may face a delay in SNAP benefits this weekend, and communities will likely experience a spike in hunger. Our new guide offers practical steps to support students during this time: https://t.co/yRsuTT6Goe
🚨 42 million Americans—including 1.1 million college students—will see their November SNAP benefits halted or delayed as the Administration refuses to release emergency funds during the shutdown.
