The Trump administration said it will fund the food assistance program in part this month. The threat of a lapse has incited chaos in Washington, on social media and at food banks nationwide.

The decision by Maryland Gov. Wes Moore’s administration will allow 680,000 residents who receive SNAP benefits to continue using the food stamps program through November.

Two federal judges have ruled that the Trump administration must at least partially cover food stamp benefits in November. Millions of Americans could still face delays to their benefits, which were scheduled to be distributed tomorrow but disrupted by the government shutdown.

The move to partially fund SNAP could delay benefits as states calculate and distribute the food subsidies, and the smaller payment may only grant recipients days or weeks before they face the threat of going without food anew, experts told ABC News.

Although states will issue partial November SNAP benefits during the shutdown, it was announced on Monday, North Texas families who count on those benefits say it's unclear when the benefits will reach them. They're thankful for local businesses and organizations stepping up to help during this difficult time.

On Saturday, the day SNAP benefits officially froze, Lantrip said the Food Bank held three mobile distribution sites. At its warehouse on Oddie Boulevard in Reno, more than 500 families showed up for boxes of food. It was similar at the other two locations.

The Senate is scheduled on Monday to reconvene at 3 p.m., as the shutdown of the federal government continues into its 34th day, approaching a 35-day record set during President Donald Trump's first term.

"Right now, there are thousands in Broward who don't know where their next meal is coming from," said Broward County Commissioner Nan Rich.
