(The Center Square) — New York Attorney General Leticia James is leading a group of Democrats suing the Trump administration over a requirement to turn over personal information about SNAP recipients. The Trump administration has threatened to withhold food aid from recipients in most Democratic-controlled states unless those states provide information about recipients. She has cited data showing that 186,000 deceased people are receiving SNAP benefits and another 500,000 have been getting double benefits. James, a Democrat who has sued the Trump administration more than 74 times, claims the Trump administration is "illegally" cutting off SNAP benefits — formerly known as food stamps — for tens of thousands of lawful permanent residents. "The federal government's shameful quest to take food away from children and families continues," James said in the statement.
