Blue States Try To Stop Trump Admin From Investigating Food Stamp Fraud Democratic attorneys general argue the USDA’s demand is merely an effort to advance the president’s agenda on issues unrelated to the food stamp program, including immigration enforcement, according to the lawsuit. Information requested by the department includes immigration status and other sensitive data. “Defendants’ demands for SNAP data from states do not occur in a vacuum, but rather in the context of a number of similar moves by federal agencies to obtain and disclose highly sensitive [Personal Identifying Information], not for program purposes, but for the creation of a surveillance system to advance the President’s agenda, including by facilitating the President’s mass deportation efforts,” the lawsuit stated.
They dont want the information to identify fraud. Food stamps cost 100 billion a year,the government spent 800 billion a year on national debt interest in 2024 and it will be a trillion a year in 2026. Even after just spending 800 billion in 2024 on national debt interest Republicans just passed a bill that will add over 5 trillion in debt so they need to stop acting like they give a damn about debt and worrying about a small % of fraud in a 100 billion dollar a year program.
