Judges rebuke Trump on food aid and elections

President Trump suffered three legal setbacks Friday as courts intervened on food aid and election policy. Judges in Rhode Island and Massachusetts ordered the administration to tap contingency funds to keep SNAP benefits flowing, with one ruling blocking a suspension of assistance for millions and another directing continued support for low-income households in suits led by cities, nonprofits, unions, and Democratic attorneys general from 22 states plus DC and three governors. Later, a Washington DC judge deemed Trump’s proof-of-citizenship election directive unconstitutional, saying the president lacks authority to impose such changes.
