the Department of Agriculture sent an email to stores across the country warning them that they weren’t allowed to offer discounts to people hurt by the cuts to the food stamp program.
At issue is SNAP’s “Equal Treatment Rule,” which bars stores from either discriminating against people in the program or offering them favorable treatment.
I doubt there is a law against an individual buying a bunch of supermarket coupons and handing them out to SNAP recipients outside the store, but I wouldn’t put it past this administration to find some way to sue that person if someone does that.
Suddenly they’re all for equality, huh.
