HARRISBURG — SNAP benefits for Pennsylvanians are on hold due to the ongoing federal government shutdown. The state Department of Human Services says payments stopped and will not resume until federal funds are released.
The department urges residents needing food assistance to call 211 or visit feedingpa.org or pa-navigate.org for help. About one in eight Americans rely on SNAP, with other states also bracing for suspended payments if the shutdown continues. More information is available at dhs.pa.gov.
