SNAP Waivers Face Legal Challenge | Cleveland News

from Cleveland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Twenty-three states now have SNAP waivers limiting purchases of “unhealthy” foods like candy and soda, with South Carolina set to join them August 31. Originating under the Trump administration, some states like Iowa are going extreme—banning nearly all taxed food except seeds. But a federal court just halted waivers in five states, ruling the USDA overstepped legal authority and skipped required public notice. While that decision doesn’t immediately undo all 23 waivers, it could create ripple effects for millions of SNAP users nationwide, leaving others in legal limbo as the situation unfolds.
