(Worthy News) – President Joe Biden on Friday signed two more executive orders that covered a range of issues including coronavirus relief, food stamps, federal unions, and an increase in the federal minimum wage.

CBS News reported that the first order Biden signed on Friday related to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), typically referred to as food stamps. Biden requested in the order that the U.S. Department of Agriculture allow states to increase SNAP benefits by 15%.

“Congress recently passed a $1 trillion relief bill that boosted the maximum SNAP benefit by 15%, but that did not help the 40% of SNAP recipients who were already at the maximum benefit. Mr. Biden’s order tells the USDA to ‘consider issuing new guidance that would allow states to increase SNAP emergency allotments for those who need it most,’ according to a fact sheet provided by the White House, which would mean that an additional 12 million people get enhanced benefits,” CBS reported. “The order would also increase Pandemic-EBT, an electronic debit card program for students who would have qualified for free or reduced-price meals at school.” [ Source: Daily Wire (Read More…) ]
