Magaziner Statement on Trump Withholding SNAP Benefits in Defiance of Court Order

WARWICK, RI – On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, U.S. Rep. Seth Magaziner (RI-02) released the following statement in response to President Trump’s post on Truth Social indicating that he will withhold SNAP funding, despite a court order to release the funds. 

“President Trump continues to use hunger as a political weapon, depriving 40 million Americans – most of them children and the elderly – of SNAP benefits in defiance of a court order. It is horrific that an American President would give $40 billion to Argentina while depriving his own citizens of food.”
