Urban Justice Center-Safety Net Project (UJC-SNP) v. Rollins
Case Overview
The Urban Justice Center Safety Net Project sued the secretary of agriculture over the termination of the waiver of federal work requirements for recipients of SNAP for Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents for 61 New York counties.
The Application
The plaintiff challenges the waiver termination as violating APA procedural requirements, arguing the government failed to provide adequate notice and opportunity for comment and that the reversal of longstanding policy lacked reasoned explanation; additionally, the action may exceed delegated authority under the Food and Nutrition Act's waiver provisions.
The Conclusion
The case is active and pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald); plaintiff seeks preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to maintain work requirement exemptions for affected SNAP recipients in New York.
