A New Law Passed by President Obama for Food Stamp Recipients

Listen to this article

A website FAMMTV published an article on 18th October 2016 and claimed that the U.S President Barak Obama had “Passed a Law” to allow the grantees of the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) and it was also known as “Food Stamps” in purchasing hot foods. It is important that most food items in this category were prohibited after a long-debated restriction for the use of SNAP benefits. The posted claim wasn’t considered credible or linked to any news outlet indicating that the U.S President passed such law. But, the website FAMMTV indicated that Obama had passed a new law for the families who receive Food Stamp or SNAP, now they can purchase hot food with EBT.

If such kind of statement was presented with imperceptibly acceptable manner, it will not pass roundup with those controlled elementary knowledge that how the executive power works. Point to be noted that the U.S President can’t create or pass laws on his own because the President doesn’t have power in creating the legislation, but it is up to the Congress. The U.S President is not authorized to create or suspend any law. The website “FAMMTV” doesn’t have any disclaimer to warn its readers about the posted articles such as “hot food”. We have found that there is not any kind of truth in the published claim. This website also posted a similar type of claim that “all unemployed Baby Mamas would be jailed if they are unable to find a job”.
