AG ​Bonta celebrated a decision from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California once again blocking the Trump Administration’s demand that states turn over personal and sensitive information about millions of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) applicants and recipients. 

“The President has made no secret of his desire to build a mass surveillance database using Americans’ personal, private data. For a second time, we’ve secured a court order rebuffing the Trump Administration’s demands that states turn over data on SNAP recipients. Time and again, the President has broken the law, and time and again, we’ve stopped him in court.” – AG Bonta
