USDA had to be order to use emergency funds
Trump had no problem putting big tariffs up, he could easily use that money to finish funding snap, the tariff is literally money the people of the USA have paid so why not give it back to the people?
Why not use the pentagon's budget? Why not use the federal worker's pension funds? Why not send marines to seize Lanai from Larry Ellison, auction off the island and use it to pay for 1-2 days of SNAP benefits nationwide
The power to appropriate funds is exclusively a power of congress. They authorized SNAP benefits up through October, and those funds are gone. They authorized an emergency fund, which only covered 65% of a single month's benefits.
There is no congressional appropriation to fund SNAP through any other funds.
No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.
