Michigan Reduces SNAP Benefit Payments

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) announced that reduced Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits will be distributed to some residents starting Saturday, November 8. The partial payments are significantly lower than usual, prompting concerns from Attorney General Dana Nessel, who warns that ongoing uncertainty over SNAP allocations is impacting Michigan families. This development comes as the state navigates challenges in providing adequate support to those reliant on these benefits.
