Gov. Lamont says SNAP recipients in Connecticut will get extra funds next week
Summary
A public announcement relayed that Gov. Lamont has authorized adding funds to SNAP cards for Connecticut recipients as early as next week; the message did not specify amounts or distribution details.
An unidentified speaker said that "Governor Lamont announced, just a few hours ago, that individuals who rely on SNAP benefits for food will have funds added to their cards as early as next week."
The announcement, relayed during a brief public message, did not state how much money would be added, which households would qualify beyond existing SNAP enrollment, or the funding source for the deposits. The speaker repeated that residents should share the news with neighbors and community members.
"That means you can expect money back on your card soon to help you buy food," the speaker said, and added, "Please share this news with your community and neighbors."
No additional details about timing beyond "as early as next week," the amount, or a contact for questions were provided in the message.
