BKReader Local News for Brooklyn, by Brooklyn AG James Leads Coalition Lawsuit to Protect SNAP Benefits For Legal Immigrants New York Attorney General Letitia James leads a 21-state lawsuit to block a USDA policy that could strip SNAP benefits from tens of thousands of lawful permanent residents. November 29, 2025 The suit announced on Wednesday challenges recent guidance from the U.S. Department of Agriculture that excludes refugees, asylees and other legal immigrants from receiving benefits even after they have secured green cards. The coalition argues that the policy is unlawful, oversteps federal authority and threatens to punish states with severe financial penalties unless they rapidly impose the restrictions.
