The USDA has paused its demand for sensitive food stamp data from states amid legal challenges, prompting mixed reactions from various states. While Missouri has committed to sharing personal data of food aid recipients with the federal government, Indiana plans to do the same. Conversely, Kansas has denied such requests. Advocacy groups express concern that federal calls for SNAP data could deter eligible immigrants from applying for assistance. The Trump Administration has backed off its earlier efforts to collect detailed data from food stamp recipients, causing further debate about the protection of personal information.
