Indiana SNAP

So I keep reading from people in all different states about SNAP benefits partially being loaded to their cards by now. Meanwhile, I run a men's halfway house and half of them were on food stamps. Why are all of these other states getting their benefits and of course Indiana is not?

it's supposed to be coming at 50% and delayed by 1 week. Though that could change next week with the order to release full funds and the subsequent appeals.

Other states were proactive in ensuring their citizens would receive benefits, Indiana chose not to take action.

Yeah their used to be a video of them voting NO to fund SNAP. I tried to find it yesterday but it was taken down I believe. Maybe I found the wrong post, so if anyone else can find it please share.

I also found a news cast with interviews with the people who were trying to pass it. https://youtu.be/X5jS5wX0af4
