Summary:
Nov. 9, 2025

The Trump administration has instructed states that they must "immediately undo any steps" that were taken to provide full SNAP benefits to low-income Americans, saying states were "unauthorized."

The U.S. Department of Agriculture, in a late-night Saturday memo obtained by CBS News, also threatened to impose financial penalties on states that did not comply with the government's new orders.

"To the extent States sent full SNAP payment files for November 2025, this was unauthorized," Patrick Penn, deputy undersecretary of Agriculture, wrote to state SNAP directors. "Accordingly, States must immediately undo any steps taken to issue full SNAP benefits for November 2025."
