AG Ellison preliminary injunction granted by courts blocking USDA from cutting SNAP funding for 450k Minnesotans

Published Date: Jan 15, 2026

 AG Ellison’s request for a preliminary injunction from the bench, protecting Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for the almost half a million Minnesotans who rely on the program to put food on the table.    

“We have won yet another battle in the Trump administration’s war on Minnesota. Before any of us in the state are Republicans or Democrats, we are Minnesotans, and it should shock and disgust us that this president is trying to take food off the table of half a million of our neighbors. I’m pleased to have stopped this from happening, and I will continue to do everything in my power to stand up to the Trump administration when they try to harm the people of Minnesota.” – AG Ellison
