CAEnforcement Action

U.S. Department of Agriculture(USDA)

California Attorney General Rob Bonta secured a second preliminary injunction from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California blocking the Trump Administration's demand that states turn over personal data of SNAP applicants and recipients. The court found the USDA's proposed data protocol would allow sharing of state data with entities unrelated to federal benefits administration, violating federal law.

Trump Administration

California Attorney General Rob Bonta, on behalf of a multistate coalition, filed a motion in U.S. District Court to enforce a preliminary injunction that blocks the Trump Administration from demanding personal and sensitive information about Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients. The Administration has renewed its demand, threatening to withhold administrative funding from states that do not comply, which the AG argues violates the existing court order and federal law protecting the confidentiality of SNAP applicant data.
